A brilliant weekend...

..It was all I wanted it to be. After a hectic day and a successful AGM, where we celebrated 5 years of the charity, it was home to iron and pack, and head off up the A1 for a Weekend Away. believe me, after the busy weeks I have had, I just couldn't wait.... I whizzed up the Al, speeding past speed cameras, which sped past me in a blur (not totally wise for someone on 12 points..however, I was in a hurry....

I arrived, checked in to the hotel and discovered my room to be at the end of the corridor, 10 yards away from the leisure pool and jacussi.....it was so calling my name..I texted Caroline and said I would see her a minute, and was swimming in the warm, blue water by 7.20pm. It was heaven. A few minutes later, Liz joined me, complete with professional swim goggles and proved to be an expert swimmer. It was only a small pool, and Caroline came on to the side, and in theory, we could chat while we swam..but I had taken my contact lenses out, and I found that without them, I could not hear properly, so had to swim to the side to peer and lip read....

So followed a lvoely evening of presents, food, frolicking and laughter in Caroline's enormous room....just what the doctor ordered!

Then, on Saturday, The Wedding. It was lvoely, truly special. I share with you what would have been a perfect picture of the bride and groom leaving the church..had Liz not decided to take the same shot at the last minute....

Oh I love you all!
So glad it was good.
I kind of hovered over whether or not to give DC a hug to pass on to you at the post GB Cheltenham meeting last night, and decided I'd better not.
So here it is instead ((Sally))
