It's been a quiet weekend here in the VH household. A trip to the theatre for Kit, a cinema visit and sleepover for a (very) belated birthday treat for Jack, "Nanny McPhee" by the fire...............
a few leftover fireworks and sparklers, with a helping hand from Daddy................
yet more late night crochet and wine.............
a few favourite foods..................
a marathon monopoly session in which the boys seemed to take a little bit too much delight in bankrupting me..............
and a lot of mess on the kitchen table.
Plans for walks and swimming went completely awry and we hardly left the house and actually it was rather nice.
Crochet class at the lovely Anna's cafe begins Tuesday, can't wait, I shall endeavour to take the camera and keep you all updated...............

Late night crochet and wine just do not go together for me....I think thats becaus after a few glasses I cant concentrate on how many stitches I have actually done!!! Glad you had a good week-end!! x
oh, I love sparklers! It looks like I have missed my opportunity this year.
Hi Julia,
Just popped by to see if you have your pinny at the ready? The VH fair is fast approaching and my thoughts are turning to cake making(and eating....)and digging out the old christmas crooners cd's.Looking forward to seeing you there, Best Wishes, Annie x
Sounds like a perfect weekend to me! Desperate to see Nanny McPhee, saving it for a cold winters day by the fire.
Have fun at the crochet class, what a good idea, wish it was near me.
Have a good week

Hey lovely lady, thanks for the free advertising! I am sooo sorry I wasn't there on Tuesday, absolutely gutted in fact. I hear it all went well though?
Got discharged last night and am now firmly wrapped up in eiderdown on the sofa, with your beautiful package in my lap. Am so touched, I cried. Thankyou sweetie. Really cheered me up. Hopefully I will be back and well in time for the next class!!
looking forward to the photos!

I love quiet weekends at home..you just can't beat them..although yours sounded quite busy really! Hope the crochet day went well at Annas..sounds like absolute bliss..coffee, cake and crochet! x
That just sound like a great weekend. The crochet class will be fun I'm sure. I love getting to our craft night, which is at the moment all knitting and crocheting. It is great to just sit around and discuss things, getting support, and hearing funny stories.
