It's been a nice vacation from blogging, but I'm glad to be back.

I've got a doctor's appointment this morning, so I'll be going into work a bit later than usual.

But before I get sidetracked, I must post some pictures from last weekend's journey to Stratford-upon-Avon with my co-workers for some 5-a-side football:

That's the winning team!

It was very cold and wet:

And the team, despite their best efforts, lost 3 games & tied 1. The crew certainly look like they tried hard:

But most imporantly, we went out for a curry & beer in the evening.

The best part of the trip for me anyway, was being able to see the beautiful town of Stratford & the Cotswalds...just stunning. Here's a picture of part of the village from Wilkopedia:

I will have to get Stephen up there this summer if possible.

Now onto more recent events: yesterday we had the family, with whom we spent 2004 Christmas, over for lunch. Stephen made most of the food so all I had to do was relax and try to remember how to be a good hostess. It's not good that I just assume if our guest is thirsty or hungary that they will just help themselves.

Stephen's been recovering from last week's marathon shifts just enough so he can embark on another relentless working week. I will be doing my best to be extra nice to the poor boy.

Anyway, gotta go see that doctor about my ears.
