We've just driven back from the wedding in Warwickshire.

I'm very tired and slightly hungover.

I've now got to put on my gladrags and do it all over again for the village champagne and salmon lunch.

Marquee, food, booze, entertainment.

All I feel like doing is going back to bed.
It's a hard life sometimes. ;)

Planning on doing a long distance walk to raise funds for Alzheimers. It's not going well! Chose the Coleridge Way only to find that at one of the villages where we end one days stage of the walk there is no accommodation. Seems a bit strange why a walk would route through a place with nowhere to stay:/ Back to the drawing board :(

Has anyone done a long distance walk that they can recommend that has b and b's at the end of each stage? Preferably down south and not completely coastal. Thanks

Jumped out of bed at 7.00am, surprisingly bright eyed and bushy tailed considering how much Prosecco had been thrown down my neck over the course of the weekend.

Changed the bedsheets, did a load of ironing, cleaned the kitchen, mopped the floor, took the bins out, on my hands and knees cleaning the skirting boards, took the dog out.

I feel like Cinderella after the ball.

Back to reality after a wonderful weekend.

Its horrible - the carer says it smells like a 'bus load of biddys on their way to bingo

Forgot to say that at the posh wedding at the weekend I was talking to a group of extremely elegant beautiful upmarket women and I don't quite know how but the subject of Avon Skin So Soft Dry Oil Body Spray came up in conversation with several of the group using it.

For the record none of these lovely creatures either resembled old biddys nor looked like they had entered a bingo hall in their life.

Apparently Avon sell 6 bottles per minute (every minute) and 41 million bottles sold since 1961.

Also an article in The Scotsman said that it's used by The Royal Marines, The SAS and The US army..... imagine how gutted they'd be to be compared to old biddies on their way to bingo.

So anyway.. I've decided that if you and the carer can't stand the smell then perhaps you both need your noses testing.... after all the millions of others that use it can't all be wrong can they? ;)

And for the record, my husband thinks I smell divine and that's all that I care about.

Forest Enterprise lumberjacks mostly wear it, I understand.

I'm not sure that I want to smell like a Royal Marine, though.
