A top night out

Hi, Rejoice, smile and praise, for it is half-term and that means a break from the red tape machine! Freedom for the Every Lovely Mrs J and myself. No more meetings, no more school run panic and hello to lie-ins, cuddles with the kids and lazy afternoons. Get in. The countdown to not giving a ***t – that’s hoot, BTW, Honestly! – has chimed and coincided with the opening of a bottle of beer and the snaffling of a very tasty tea. Last night was party night at Nottingham Chameleons and it was one of those nights, were everything seemed to go well. For those of you who aren’t so interested in What Lynn Did Next, feel free to check […]

Do walk into the light

Hi, All is quiet at Jones Towers. The Ever Lovely Mrs J is out with the girls and Wee Man is having a stop over at Granny’s. Little Miss is fast on, having enjoyed a hot bath, after her school disco.

We had a number of new visitors to the group, as well as some returning folk. One visitor would I guess be FTM – female to male, for those not down with the gibberish – if we’re going to play the label game. His female friend had come along for moral support and it was so good to see many of the group, rally round […]

A gift of calmness

Hi, This morning I was late in for work, as I had an appointment at the local doctors’ surgery. Nothing serious mind, which is all good news. I was due to see said health profession at 9.30, which gave me half an hour to kill, after dropping Little Miss off at school. Wee Man has been away all this week and while there was a brief moment of ‘….and relax…’ as there was only one bedtime routine to do, I have missed him and the place wasn’t the same without him. Far too quiet and a distinct lack of family banter. Where was I? Oh aye, post-school run. 🙂 With 30 minutes on my hands, I could have gone home […]
