Easter Eggcellence

Last night The Mad One, The Spud Farmer, GASP and I journeyed to our home village of Slane to see the Hot House Flowers. I turned to GASP at one point advising him that this event was nothing short of perfection, out on a sunny Bank holiday Sunday , glass of cider in hand, live music, and good friends. I had last seen the Flowers while in the UK, some 25 years ago, when they were a perfect reminder of all things from home and the joyful madness of dancing all night. The Mad One and I happily let our middle aged bodies go with the music last night ( no...no one got injured !) and had a ball. Little Big Horn and his lovely Missus were also at the gig and as I walked past them I was greeted with a " Hello Bigfoodiemama" which made me smile and remind me that my alter ego has been in hiding and needed to re emerge from the wintery shadows.

Birthdays and Babies

Preggers and Photoshop have had a baby boy ! Now that baby is her Preggers is....obviously...no longer pregnant so will have to be renamed. I should have thought about the temporary nature of her condition before labelling her. She will however always be an English Rose so her new name is born ! Last night a select few celebrated the birthday of the FA with an early bird in Marinis Italian Restaurant. It was meant to be a quick bite and film evening but we rarely make the film cause we are always far too busy talking. Sparkle, the Blonde, Newly Single and I joined the birthday girl. I was in a particularly delicate frame of mind having been to WW and had my mental state put into turmoil, when the leader told me I would have to count points as they have stopped the "no count" diet.....bloody hell, my biggest nightmare.Only my desire to lose weight will get me through this. I will not refer to it until you want to shoot me, but will keep you posted on my progress. Great hilarit...
