Well as I needed to know what to pack I just had to ask Geoff about my Mystery holiday….

I now know we fly from Luton on Monday at 6am… and will be away a full week.

I think we are going to 2 places one warm one maybe cold…..

Pack walking stuff, walking sandals, maybe boots, jeans, and posh girlie skirt and shoes….

Now the wicked bit only hand luggage so I have to pack very light….

I thought about all my toiletries and nice perfume…. Geoff said don’t pack any buy it when we get there….

Packing always stresses me as I never know what to pack….none of my clothes match… Girlie skirt with walking jacket  !!!!!

Everyone is so desperate to find out where I am going… that’s people from work… friends, my boys, my mum and Dad, and people from massage course too.

So I have told them all to read my blog on Monday…..

Tomorrow I will be unbearable at work, then home, pack and off to Cambridge…and another adventure begins.

I have never had a surprise like this before… it feels Fantastic and it goes with out saying that I am bursting with excitement.

I have started to think about my surprise holiday or should I say panic about my surprise holiday…

As far as I know we go away 2 weeks today, only a few days after Geoff gets home from the Pyrenees.

I dropped it into our conversation last night when he rang me…. all I got was pack light no more than 10kg ,wear walking kit and its high so could be cold…..

I have tried to get some information from Emily but she is not playing in fact this is what she had to say….

“Urm well…. I would be the biggest traitor ever if I told you, all I’ll say is you are going to LOVE it. I don’t like dad’s usual holiday activities but even I would DIE to go on this one it’s just stunning and breath taking and you’re going to have an amazing time :D”

Don’t know about you but I am going to burst with excitement soon…. not only am I excited about Geoff coming home but what a surprise I have to look forward to as well….

Any one like to take a guess at where I will be going and what I will be doing ???

After a very emotional and draining Funeral in Romiley  near Manchester.

My boys were fantastic , Matthew even managed to get up and say a little speech all about his dad, Andrew dealt with it in his own way but they are boys to be proud off.

For me it was a very hard, emotional day but I think I dealt with it well and would like to say Thank you to all those people that showed me and my boys great kindness in our time of sadness.

I now have a lot to deal with over the coming weeks/months and I hope I can deal with it quickly and painlessly, although I doubt it will be painless for me.

A big Thank you must go to Geoff who drove us up to Manchester and collected us after the funeral, it was a big help, we loved the tour round  Creswell  his home town, and the Boys enjoyed staying in Cambridge ,was like a little holiday for them.

I spent the rest of the week-end swimming and sunbathing, recharging my batteries ready for the coming weeks.

Must say I do get sun burnt in the most strange places……

I see James has been blogging about the lack of visitors from blogpower people so I really must try and get round to visiting them all some time this week.

I also see lady M  has awarded me the Thoughtful Blogger Award, which is most kind of her.

I will pass it onto Ellee, Anne, and of course Geoff….

As most of you know it was Geoff’s big birthday at the
week-end.

He had a full day of activities planned and they all went very well even if we did get a bit behind schedule at one time.

My favorite part of the day was going to see Taming of the shrew in the gardens of St Johns college.

It was so good I almost didn’t notice that it was pouring down with rain.

My cake turned out really well and was enjoyed by everyone… not a crumb was left.

Today I got the marzipan and icing on, so can relax a little now.

Just got to tidy it up and smarten the top up.

Must say it smelt real delish, if it tastes as good I will be well pleased.

Geoff has a real full day planned for his Birthday and I am so looking forward to the week-end and being with him on his special day
