WELCOME TO MY BLOG

Hi and welcome to my or should I say our blog. I'm not very experienced at this so I may make a few mistakes along the way but hey hopefully I will get there in the end.

I started this blog as a way of keeping in contact with family and friends, especially those who live overseas. I have to especially thank Nikki who had she not sent me details of her wonderful blog you would not be viewing this now. So take a look and see how much my 2 beautiful boys are growing and have a little insight into my world!!

LONDON CELEBRATIONS


The Houses of Parliament


Birthday boy Martin



Ness and Kirk enjoying the sunshine

Our suite at the County Hall Marriott - the views were amazing.



Kirk trying to be He Man in the rooftop garden at the restaurant - I think he was struggling somewhat!


At Coq d'argent French Restaurant in the City - we are on a viewing platform and the winds blowing - plays havoc with the hair!!


Out for a stroll - check out the London Eye behind us!


View from our hotel suite - Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament

To celebrate Martin's 40th and Kirk's pending 40th in a weeks time Ness and I treated our boys to a luxury weekend in London. We stayed at the County Hall Marriott Hotel originally the offices of the London Mayor until 1986 so a very historic site. The hotel was situated right on the Thames by the London Eye and faced the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben so the views were really something.

We took the boys to a French Restaurant in the evening which was located on the roof top of one of the buildings in the City Square Mile. We had a lovely evening and the drinks flowed!!!

The weekend was great it was nice to spend some time together without the kids although we love them dearly we all need a break every so often and Martin and I have waited 9 years for ours so we were well overdue. An altogether great weekend with very special friends.
