So, yesterday passed without incident, other than the cat being freaked by fireworks around here! Ate fresh pineapple, prepared lovingly by my husband late last night, but nothing so far.

So, spent morning baking some cakes for the Ranger stall this weekend, and also one for us so that we can offer cake to any post baby visitors...that's if it lasts that long!! Cider & honey cake......gorgeous. Craig loves it but that could be because he has to drink the remaining cider! Such a hardship! Baked some apple & walnut thins, and now got a banana cake in the oven, so lets hope that looks OK to sell.

Zoe said she might visit this afternoon, which will be lovely. She's got a 6 month old boy, so perhaps the sound of him squawking or playing may encourage ours to think about appearing!

Parents rang this morning to see if any news too. They have a free weekend this weekend and are really hoping they can spend it visiting their grand-child.......wish I could promise them that!

Well, just cleaned bathroom, and downstairs needs a bit of a hoover, so we'll do that and then have sit down this afternoon. It's tough this mat leave lark!

Craig is tiling again today, only about half dozen left, but ran out of adhesive yesterday. Then they'll need grouting, but the main bulk of the kitchen will be done, so at least it can be tidied and cleaned, and maybe Steve and Dawn will see the end is near. Craig will then lay the carpet for the dining area, and fit the low level units they are having along the side, with another small worktop. Will look gorgeous. We get quite jealous with these jobs, cause we can't wait to be able to do a kitchen up for ourselves and have the benefit. One day!!
