Back to reality…

The past couple of months have pretty much been non-stop. In fact, there was a point when I hadn’t spent a weekend at home for about 6 weeks. We had Thailand, then Stone Roses in Dublin (I left Poppy with my parents for that one, much to her disgust), London, then London again, then Dumfries to stay with gran and granddad, then Ireland for a wedding…..and we have just returned from our most recent weekend away in the Highlands.

So, I’m officially hanging up my holiday hat for the year and getting back to business. Poppy has started school (will post about that later) so our lives will now be dictated by term times and her social calendar.

In the absence of frequent blogging during the course of these adventures, I’m copping out and posting a series of photos instead to illustrate the past couple of months.

The hair braids that took as long to take out as they did to get in.

Kata Beach, Phuket.

The waterpark that got her through the vaccinations.

A lifetime dream come true – finally got to see The Stone Roses.

Bowie in Brixton.

Another trip to London, another boat trip along the Thames….

Toasting marshmallows in Dumfries.

T-shirt friends.

Scrubbing up.

This is going to end up costing me big-time….
