Phew !!

Well we finally made it and broke up for half term yesterday.

What a relief we have had loads of children off school this week with a sore throat and/or norovirus.

At it's height on Tuesday there were 24 out of 80 children off sick-including Twiglet :(

Thank goodness we managed to have his birthday party before the sickness began on Monday,

Anyhoo we just went for his swimming lesson and it had been cancelled as a child had been sick in the pool - bleurgh, it would have been nice for the pool folks to warn us before we drove over but hey ho!!

It's been grotty, wet windswept day today, we have many plans mostly around home with perhaps an outing over the next week and our first visit to the car booty this year- yay !!

The photos are from a sunny evening walk last week.

Well that is if we can drag Twiget away  from his Kindle Fire -he has saved and saved for it for ages and the lucky boy was given birthday cash as well as lots of super pressies,so he was able to finally buy it and bank the rest !!

I've got to say though my favourite gift from his friends are a homemade Tardis on a stick,a homemade Dr Who and K9 pencil case and a Keep Calm and call the Dr t.shirt :)

Well however, you chose to spend half term, keep warm and have fun, lets hope for a bit of sunshine

Is there a Doctor in the house ??

Yes there is, and he was 8 on Sunday - crikey !!

Happy birthday to our beautiful boy !!

He had a tip top Dr Who party on Sunday and check out the fab Tardis cake made by Mr Twigs !!!

We had party games, we had a lovely old church hall, we had very lovely and well behaved children, we had a lovely lady called Joy dressed as Dr Who, mostly we had FUN !!

Catch Up Part 1

Well it's been a while, life is very hectic at Twiggy Towers and as usual it's all change.

I've changed my hours to 2 full days per week, so I can hopefully find another little job to slot in, Twiglet is going from strength to strength and will be 8 very soon !! (he's having a Dr Who party and Mr Twigs has volunteered to make a Tardis cake - top Dad).

And the Twiggy's have put Twiggy towers on the market - blimey!! told you I'd been busy.

If you fancy living in a stately pile drop me a line, meanwhile we are clearing clutter and painting like mad, hence the disappearing act.

Sadly, we had some fabtastic snow and snow drifts up here at Easter, but I can't find the photos, I will return later with some pics, they are ace!!

Anyhoo a bit of half term fun.

Lovely, lovely Twiglet at lovely lovely Nostell Priory.

Silly boys on the seesaw at The Hepworth Gallery in Wakefield.

 Blurred Twiggy and Twiglet at Standedge Tunnel - do you like our jaunty hats?  I wore mine as a fascinator :)

 I really don't like enclosed spaces but enjoyed this trip, and Marsden is just lovely.

Ooooo hello, it's Nostell Priory again.

Righto, must get a bit of ironing done before school run time, Twiglet has an after school singing club on Wednesday !!

I am still here - honest !!!

Well I really didn't intend to disappear for 2 months - but hey real life sometimes takes over!!

Only problem is, I now have a lot to share and don't know where to start.

I'll start by saying have a super Bank holiday weekend and I will hopefully find some time to update you on our adventures over the weekend !!
