Spring is here!


The last few days have been glorious. We've had the odd April shower but most of the time it has been beautiful sunshine. All the daffodils are out and some people were already cutting the grass, which of course, we are in no hurry to start.

We have been invited to this year's first BBQ, a week on Friday, for Pod's birthday. That is definitely something to look forward to as the BBQ's (and indeed, all parties) at Lee & Pod's are sensational.

It isn't long now for our holiday, and it's getting very exciting. We had our jabs on Monday; I had only Hepatitis A and Typhoid but Chris had to have Tetanus too. With all the riding and contact with horses, etc; I have kept my tetanus injections up to date, anyway. Apparently, we have to have boosters in 6 months time.

After Mexico, I have already planned every camping trip for this year, which is roughly once a month until end of September, but almost a week in August. After all, it is what we are working for, isn't it?

Here is a piccie from last summer. We took Macavity with us.

The other day we also booked next year's main holiday (in May again) but to the Isle of Man this time. We found out that in 2007 the TT is 100 years old and is having an extra special celebration. We have booked to go for nearly 3 weeks, which includes both practice week and race week plus a few days either side. Chris is already getting extremely excited about it and already planning what we are going to do and we haven't even been to Mexico yet.
