We had three or four lovely days where the temperature actually almost made it to 10ºC but then on Wednesday the cold came back 🙁

Mummy worked a couple of days last week so daddy day care kicking on Thursday for the day – hence it was haircut day 🙂 OK, so we also took a field trip out to Toys R Us 🙂 We were going to go to Wakefield on the bus as part of the field trip, but sadly we were kept in the barbers for just over an hour and a half as they were MEGA busy 🙁

All back to school tomorrow and we are hopeful that the temperature builds back up again as we were sure that we got a glimpse of Spring earlier in the week…

Elliot and Oliver had a sleep over at Granny Cuckoos last night as mummy and daddy went out for a lovely meal with friends Ed and Sharon. We went to the Blackhouse on East Parade in Leeds – it was a terrific meal with great company – particularly some of Ed’s impersonations 🙂  Part of us wished we had gone for the Wagyu Fillet of beef, as we shared the Chateaubriand (since we not had one for years and it is a bit of a favourite of Simon’s), and felt a little let down with the overall cut of the meat.  There was a live pianist who played some great tracks – in fact Simon thought that it was just a CD that was playing, only to be not right as he enquired as we left… 🙁  Overall, a great night that just demonstrates we should do stuff like that more often where possible – just need to locate a good babysitter for the kids so that we don’t have to rely on Granny Cuckoo all of the time.

The kids have had a great time at Cuckoo’s as she has setup one of the bedrooms as a playroom and we took some of their toys over.  Accordingly, Cuckoo and Nard saw little of the bous since they disappeared into ‘their’ room and played, watched TV etc.

Back to school tomorrow so homework etc is presently being run through and clothes / uniforms located 🙂
