Not really into all this 'after life ' stuff,.But after being freaked out the other day when my mum's watch, that I'd had a new battery put in earlier that
day, stopped working at exactly the same time as their wall clock which had had new batteries a few days earlier.......

Picked a bunch of mum's daffs while we still own the house for a few days yet. Got home and put in vases..

A white feather appeared on the mat outside the kitchen door, which is inside my garage :raise:

Glad to get home to find neighbours 'fuss cat' wasn't cemented into the patch- up job of the crater that a bag of grit caused.
A bit rough looking, as hubby wasn't in the mood for laying cement this weekend , but hopefully going to save me breaking my neck falling down the massive hole,!

Today i had charge of 27 children from Rugeley.

Whilst preparing to tutor them in the ways of righteousness, as i squatted down to retrieve some of my accoutrements from a box, i heard the unwelcome sound of rippage in the area of my trouser seat.

I spent the entire day in the full knowledge that the rent in my outerpants was growing larger with every arse flex.

By about one o'clock i realised that a second front had opened, and was growing at an alarming rate. Luckily, by this stage i was wearing an outer garment that protruded beyond the rapidly expanding rift, but was at a crucial part in proceedings that necessitated much bending down. I could both hear and feel the catastrophic failure of my trouser seat expanding on both sides of the seam.

My outer garment, whilst adequate enough to cover a minor schism, wasn't ample enough to completely hide what had now become a major pant seat malfunction, so i had to find a way to 'bring up the rear' in a way that wasn't too obvious as i shepherded my charges toward the exit.

I think i got away with it, by which i mean i seriously hope i got away with it - certainly i didn't get any comments from the kids who are generally not particularly backward in coming forward with the whole noticing of this sort of thing - and otherwise the day went rather well i thought.

I have just bought tickets for Kate Rusby in May.

Try and get a part of that if you can, she's very lovely.

Had a brilliant night out last night at The Leicester Comedy Festival Awards evening.

The Festival was in February and is now recognised as one of the biggest stand alone comedy festivals in the world.

Out of over 800 shows at the Festival my son with his company Jokes On Us (JOU) put on over 100 comedy shows with various comedians.

He was nominated for a few awards and we were thrilled and delighted when he won the award for best promoter.

I was a very proud Mum last night.

Just had a young bloke knock the door, says he's from Cancer Research, had the sweatshirt,lanyard and big folder in his hand. Tried the hard sell, so much per month etc.. I asked if he had a form I could read before committing to such stuff, No, but they do have a cancellation period of a month, and why would I want to read it first? So I can be sure of what I'm getting myself into!
Told him no, but it don't half seem a bit late come a knocking for something like that??
