Richard and I decided to take a long weekend off together before the arrival of baby Bosley. We booked off 6th- 10th July 2017. The night before we have to clear out the bedrooms in advance of new carpet being laid, Rich did the heavy lifting but I had loads of bits in the small room to clear out. We worked from home in the morning and we were having the carpet changed in our bedroom and the nursery. The guys were due at 8 but it ended up being switched to 11.3...

Richard booked for my Christmas present a trip to Lisbon for our first wedding anniversary. We were leaving on Friday 12th May from Heathrow terminal 3. Dad was off on sick leave so he managed to pick and drop us off which was good. We went to Leon for a bite to eat before we went through to departures. I had a chicken burger and Rich had a wrap and we got his free side of fries. As there was a slight mix up, the lady actually gave us a brownie as well which wa...

Luckily we left with enough time as the guy basically didn't have enough petrol so asked if he could quickly fill up which was fine but a bit chee...

Our last hot holiday of 2016 was to Rhodes in Greece, we went on the 17th September. I did my 3 classes in the morning and we left about 12.40 and it took just under 2 hours to get to the parking space which was on the driveway of a big house in the country near Gatwick. We were greeted by the two guard dogs and they were more friendly then scary. We waited for our taxi and it had been given the instruction of picking up 50m from the Russ Hill Hotel. After wait...
