Typical

I booked two days off work & what happened....a ruddy great Cold, thats what happened :(

Oh well I tried not to let it sopil the time off. Thursday I felt pretty Ikky so I curled up on the settee & watched Mark Eeking on the computer for the best part of the day whilst he dosed me with copiouse amounts of Tea to make me feel better :o)

Friday luckily I awoke feeling much more alive than the previous day so we decided to have a look to the Metro Centre, we grabbed a light lunch (KFC's light...right? =oP)& sauntered around variouse little shops purchasing Bilberry Wine, Spiced Tea & other such items. It was a really lovely day, Mark spoilt me rotten saying if I saw any clothes/shoes I liked to grab them...so I may have bought a couple of things :$ then he took me to meet his friend who works in Lush (gorgeous girly shop full of handmade soaps & creams etc) Vicki was very nice indeed we all chatted for a while & then she said oh by the way you can have my discout :-o...how nice was that! so I picked a couple of little treats for myself thanked her & we headed away (on looking in my bag after leaving I noticed she had popped a couple of extras in...very naughty!)

After leaving the Metro Centre we headed to Marks Mums for a cuppa, his step Dad was up in Edinburgh so we said we'd call to see her. We all had a nice chat & Pat (Marks Mum) gave us Tea & Cake which is always awesome so we invited them to ours during the week to return the favour :o)

Well after over running slightly at Marks Mums we scurried back to Darlington with only about 40 mins to go before My good friends Jo & Jono arrived so that we could all go for a meal *argh* Mark went on pot wash duty bless him so that the house looked pesentable for them to step into whilst I had the qickest shower ever! well with a little time added to try out my new lotions & potions =oP Amazingly as Jo & Jono arrived I was ready to go, Mark & I gave them a super-duper fast tour of the house before setting off to the Treasure Inn for some tasty food.

We all had a fantastic night(aside from eating far too much)as we always do.

Well that's about everything, the rest of the weekend was back to normal with Mark returning to work so I pottered around the house & geeked on WarHawk...I mean Ironed...yes thats what I meant to say =oP
