Blutac

In much the same way that my mum thinks that all worldy ills can be solved by Savlon, my eldest son thinks that everything can be mended with Blutac!!! For example: mobile phones, bedframes, lumps of plaster off the wall???

Point to Point


I became disheartened with my blog over the Easter holidays, but am now back with a vengeance, since I received an e-mail from Wifey to say that she had blogrolled me!!!


On Easter Saturday "The Fam" (i.e. my husband, 2 sons & 2 dogs) went to the Whittington Point to Point Races, near Kirkby Lonsdale. My husband & I met at this event 22 years ago and we haven't been since. The horse racing is really incidental, as everybody goes to be noticed in their expensive 4x4s and see who can throw the most lavish picnic. The prize this year definitely went to a couple who had a solid fuel Aga craned into the middle of the field!!! Have they never heard of disposable barbeques???


The day was made even more memorable as I fell in love with the alpacas from www.whynotalpacas.co.uk who had a stand at the races. Unfortunately, my hubbie does not appear to be minded to part with £1,500.00 for a pair!!! I can't possibly understand why???
