Today, I let an 18 year old loose on my body.

Now, there’s more than one person would like to get their hands on my body (!) but this was the guy I wanted.

And just look what he did with me!

We visited my brother and sister-in-law over the bank holiday. The 200 mile journey took just over 4 hours but the children were happy colouring and sleeping in the car.

Christian had to work on the Saturday but his wonderful wife Nicki had organised a fantastic day at Tilgate Park; a huge area of woodland, parkland and a nature centre.

It was lovely, and Nicki brought a picnic for everyone. The children all wore out themselves (and us!) so it was back to Christian and Nicki’s  in time to meet another guest, also from Sheffield.

Saturday night was spent watching DVD’s and catching up with each other’s news.

Sunday is the day of The Family Barbeque. Poor Nicki spent all day running around organising, cooking cleaning up after people and generally being a more than perfect hostess.

She baked with the children, looked after them, fed them and kept everyone’s drinks flowing. As for my dear brother, he offered to buy her some new shoes when her feet wore out! Tut tut!

I can’t put into words what a great time we had, so this will have to do. And the photo’s of course!
