A good stretch and a lot of good books
Ah it's nice to be on holiday - even if it is back in Canada. I think I've used up all my holiday this year coming back.

In the meantime, K had to leave early today because of an emergency and E left at lunch because he was taking a half day off. M wasn't here all day and the ( Read more... ) -
Back to greyness

Two weeks in Canada already gone
That's right, I'm already back in the UK. To those that I didn't see, I'm really sorry but with my father being ill, I've been taking a lot of time to be with him ( Read more... ) -
Banged up
Okay most people know I don't bruise easily. As a matter of fact, it's really hard to get me to bruise. Probably a good thing considering my hobbies and the sports I like to play ( Read more... )
