Easter eggs in Tesco, on the opposite side of the aisle there were half price Christmas puddings!

We had a trip out to the new winter garden at Dunham Massey and, for my very last blog photo, tomorrow I'll upload a photo taken with my proper camera.

I spent most of today in bed recovering from a norovirus attack. Later we watched Harry Potter on DVD whilst Jenny and I played Bejeweled Blitz...look at that concentration!

We escaped the poorly Tilley house to visit the Hurley's. This was a fantastic ebay purchase they made a few weeks ago, and it works! How cool!

Christmas starts here!
We had a lovely meal at Puschka, then on to the Phil for the Spirit of Christmas. When we came out it was snowing proper snow, which made for a very slow journey home. But Alice delivered us all safely.

I met Elizabeth, Chris and Oliver for lunch in La Tasca. Oliver was very clear in his mind that he was having ice-cream for pudding.

We were up early and into town on the 9.10 train. Shopping was nearly finished by 10.30 when we treated ourselves to this pret 'breakfast' = yum! And what pretty coffee!!

Last day in this office today. Boxes are packed and the blue crate now contains my computer. I'll be working at home for the next few days.

I was so busy preparing for the sherratts coming on Friday, and then chatting to them that I missed my chance to upload the top photo to my blog - and what an exciting photo it is! Clear out time at work in preparation for our big move.

On Saturday we had a lovely day out hunting penguins. Yo -Suhsi for lunch, Liverpool Eye and then me and my sis had afternoon tea at the Carriageworks = perfect day!

Two very pink cakes were waiting on the rather scruffy looking window sill when I got home from work - thank you girls! x
