Reflections….

As we come to the end of yet another year, its time for us all to sit andDSCF1674 reflect on the past year.

Like most people I had my highs and lows

In 2007 I was given opportunities that I never expected

I was encouraged to do things that I never thought I would have the confidence to do.

I achieved something that I had only dared to dream about.

In fact my whole life changed,even now I find it hard to believe that all these things have happened to me.

I have a lot to be grateful for and I must not forget my boys if they were not so good and understanding I would not have been able to do the things I have done.

All I want in 2008 is continued health and happiness for me , my boys, Geoff, Emily and all my friends be them real or cyber friends.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL……

Sleep in Heavenly Peace……….

This is perhaps the cutest Christmas photo going around this year.   Please spread throughout the world for everyone to see, so that maybe…just maybe, someday our world will be as peaceful as this.
Merry Christmas!!!

New Year… New Car…

After my very Lucky Escape, just before Christmas, and getting the upsetting news that they might right my car off.I decided I best start thinking about a new car.

Before all this happened I was happy to have another Clio but I have now changed my mind about that.

My second choice was the Peugeot 207.

So at the week-end we took ourselves off to Marshall the Peugeot dealers in carCambridge.

Daniel Tranter, their sales executive looked after me and got me all the  information I needed.

A new Peugeot 207 Urban, diesel, will cost £10,945,but the delivery time is 10 weeks . A huge length of time for me to be with out a car.

If I am not fussy about color they could get me an Urban S in 10 days, costing an extra £700 but  they would split the difference in cost with me. 

To do this would  mean I could not afford the Alloy wheels I have dreamed about for years.

Now if they were to throw in the Alloy wheels I would be up there now signing on the dotted line….

If your reading this Daniel ….  you know my number….

Or can anyone else better this deal….

A Sunday Stroll

In desperate need of some exercise we decided we had to do a walk today.

So at 10am we set off from Cambridge, the plan was to walk to Ely then catch the train back, making it a very  respectable walk of 17 miles.

The walk took us along the River Cam where we saw many boats and barges.

We also saw the Cambridge rowing association out training for The Bumps.owl

At Stretham Ellee met us at the river and took us to her house for home made mushroom soup and tea,a very welcome break. 

Then we were back on our way along the river, very disappointing not to see any Herons but we did see an owl flying low along the river bank.

We arrived at Ely station at 15.50, 5 mins before the train was due so perfect timing.

A selection of photos can be seen here,taken on Geoff’s new camera.

This was a great way to start our training for our next long distance walk,which we hope to do in late April early May time.

A gift good enough to eat

Geoff’s son Steve has recently started working for Pork farms.pork pie

He works in the new products department, where they make the delicious pork pies.

So for Christmas he made me my own special pork pie, pork chilli and cheese to be exact.

It looks and smells wonderful and I cannot wait to eat it.

Shame I am feeling a little stuffed after the turkey and trimmings so will have to wait till tomorrow before I can try it.
