After a potentially disastrous start to yesterday (other half went off to meeting, leaving the car so we could have use of it, but taking the car keys with him ~ idiot) middle son and I went into Birmingham BY BUS (one hour) and back by train (20 minutes standing jam packed on train that refused to leave the platform). It was worth it though as I got the things I wanted.

Eldest goes back to Edinburgh today after his weekend visit. It is going to feel very strange for him returning to his flat. I think he will suddenly realise how much it IS his 'home', when he sees how familiar it all is, which is nice. He is planning on coming down for a very fleeting visit in early December to see Sophie and also to go the Birmingham's German Christmas Market, which will be great!

Middle son auditioned for next year's school production ~ they are doing 'Fiddler on the Roof'.

14 year old daughter continues to plead for boyfriend to stay over, to which the answer is repeatedly 'no'. Yes I am a heartless mother.

Yes...I was surprised at how addictive it was! (and will do, thanks!)
