G'day!

We are back from Sydney where we had a great time visiting my brother and his family. The weather wasn't great with only a few days of really hot sunshine but most of the time it was warm enough to wander around in short sleeves. Shouldn't really complain as it is Autumn there!
We found Australia really expensive as the exchange rate was so poor therefore not many purchases made. I did however drag this metal sign all the way home!


It is good to be back with all our home comforts especially my very comfy bed! I always really miss my bed when im away. It's one of those memory foam mattresses and the best purchase I have ever made. If you don't have one you should try one out!

We came home to squatters! A starling family has made residence in my extractor fan outlet! Greg is not happy wondering how we are ever going to get the nest out as they have gone quite far down the pipe.

Royal wedding fever has gripped our household, especially as I am planning quite a few activities at Brownies over the next few weeks and I have promised my girls we would have a tea party on the day of the wedding. Went to Aldi's this morning as I heard they had cheap bunting. All gone I'm afraid however I did manage to get a couple of large Union Jack's and some 'Keep Calm' tea towels.

Hope you all have a lovely Easter weekend and that the weather keeps up for all the egg hunts we will be doing!
Apologies for the standard of photo's. Had to take them on my phone as camera needs to be charged!
