Sharing, not quite there, more to enjoy later

1. The privilege of visiting another church to talk about the schools work in the area. We were made very welcome. And I got to have a go with 2 puppets!

2. We didn't see the Red Arrows (they couldn't take off from Liverpool because it was too windy) but we almost caught the end of the Typhoon display. It sounded amazing! (and we saw a tiny bit through the trees as we walked)

3. Making a tasty meal, with more for tomorrow and 2 meals in the freezer. Spicy aubergines, peppers, courgettes, onion, tomato, kidney beans and chickpeas. Served with couscous and creme fraiche. My teenage self wouldn't recognise me ;-)

Checking in again

I'm not sure quite why blogging drifted off recently... maybe life's just been a little too busy. It's a shame really, as I've missed recording some fun times:

- 4 days in Warsaw visiting family and exploring the city at the beginning of May
- a lovely relaxed meal out with A's family for his birthday
- afternoon tea in a country house hotel beside Ullswater for our 11th anniversary
- replacing the pebbledash on the front of our house (we've had scaffolding and everything)
- busy times at work, including a successful inauguration event where I did a short presentation (2.5 minutes) as part of the dignitaries' tour
- and I've started trying to get fit using the couch to 5k programme. Yesterday evening was run 3 from week 2.
