Well I’m really excited as I managed to get hold of two tickets to see Jean-Michel Jarre this morning, He will be performing a one off concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London celebrating the 30th anniversary of his album Oxygene. The show is being held on the Sunday 30th March, which isnt that far off already.

I’m not sure if Jen is too keen to go but she’s up for coming along for a day out, even if she doesn’t like his music. The fun bit is going to be driving in and around London to get to the place. I’ve pre-booked a parking space nearby so hopefully it wont be too difficult.

It was my birthday today and we all had a lovely day. James had the day off so we thought we’d go somewhere for the day. We debated long and hard about where to go as the weather wasn’t very nice but by the time we were ready to go out it had brightened up so we decided to go to the Zoo.

Amie loved having her daddy there because he’s normally at work when we have days out.If you ask her, her favourite animal was the lion although she means tiger as they had no lions there!

Grandma and Grandad gave them both some money to buy something. Amie spent hers, Bethany’s and some of Daddy’s to buy herself a cuddly tiger)

As for Bethany, she seemed to enjoy herself!

Back to my birthday, i had a fab day and was spoilt rotten! James bought me an ipod, the girls bought me some speakers to go with it. I also had clothes, jewellery, smellies and a handbag!

In the evening, we had a chinese, wine and watched some tv!

Thanks everyone for your pressies, they were very much appreciated!

Wow they were fantastic!

I went to see Take That with Ange and they were absolutely brilliant. We went to Birmingham by coach and had an absolutely fantastic day!

They sung all the old classics and were even better than I remember.

I got a lovely t-shirt to remember the day by.

We’re looking forward to their next concert.

We went to Rachel and Robyn’s wedding today, it was a lovely occasion and was arguably the best day of the year weather wise!

They got married in All Saints church in Horsford with the reception at Horsford Villiage hall.

We both know Rachel and Robyn from our Virgin days and they have a young son called Toby.

The wedding was at 2pm so we left early and had a drive around in the hope that Bethany would sleep, needless to say she didn’t.

I went armed with a bottle of milk so that when the tired grizzliness kicks in I could distract her with that.

All the way through the service, photos and the journey to the hall she was wide awake and as good as gold!

They kept the reception low key and we had a lovely hot and cold buffet.

Bethany had the decency to sleep during the half an hour we had our food so she was quite happy during the speeches.

Amie was fairly good all day and had Dylan there to keep her company. She was a bit irritable during the church but was pacified with a biscuit!

We left around 8.30 as Bethany was suffering from sleep deprivation and Amie was almost asleep on her feet!

A lovely day was had my all, the bride looked gorgeous (we have photos which we’ll put on) and we got to meet up with some old friends we haven’t seen for a long time.

Today was the last time we see Dylan, Angela and Keira until the New Year so we decided to go out for dinner as a treat. We went to the Mill House which was interesting !! They’re changing chef’s so the menu was a bit limited. However, despite that, the meals were lovely.

Amie and Dylan were getting a bit fed up so we came back home and we decided they could swap Christmas presents. I know it’s a bit early but they’re going to get so many pressies on the day and will be so overwhelmed, at least they can have a play with these one’s before the big day arrives. Needless to say, all four of them (Amie, Dylans, Keira and Bethany) were spoilt !!
