Lump Scare
Last night I found a small lump in my right breast. Consequently, I couldn't sleep all night and felt dreadful this morning. I am lucky that my doctors operate an open surgery, where you can just call in and wait for your turn and eventually you will get seen to.
It took 3 hours of waiting, but it was worth it. The female doctor seemed fairly confident that it is just a blocked milk gland. She gave me some antibiotics and told me to make an appointment for next Monday. She is expecting it to disappear before that but told me to come back if it hasn't.
Fingers crossed that it does disappear.

Another morning wasted on the Glastonbury tickets to no avail. We had 6 phones going all at the same time (4 mobiles, the land line and the internet phone) but we still couldn't get through. We even bought a phone number from ebay that should have given us a shortcut to the key, but it didn't work. I think we are now accepting that we are NOT going to Glastonbury 2007 :-(

Wow, it was the weather for camping
We went camping in Leek as, planned from Thursday to Monday and it was absoulety fantastic; well worth waiting for. You could tell that summer is around the corner; the weather was glorious. Chris brought the bike with us as he needed to go back to work for a few hours in the afternoon.
Thursday and Friday we spent around Leek and the campsite but on Saturday we went to visit Rudyard lake and then went to a water mill, where we got a guided tour. Saturday night Stan and Anna came to visit and we had a bbq and some beers that they kindly brought. It was a great night, watching photos, listening to music and just chatting. It was decided that we would come back next month for a "girly" weekend, when Chris is on the Isle of Man.
On sunday, we went first took the bike to Matlock Bath where we spent some time looking at all the other bikes lined up the streets and had a gorgeous dinner in a nice pub where they had a huge no smoking area. We then moved on to Buxton where we just had a look at the shops and Chris bought some tools from a market inside the Crown hotel.
Sunday night we relaxed at the tent, watching telly and finishing off the beers. The fresh air makes us tired so when we go camping we tend to go bed early so therefore it's a good way to catch up with plenty of sleep.
On monday morning, after breakfast, we packed up and just as I started to drive off in the car; it started drizzling a bit. That was good timing wasn't it? Whilst we were at the site, I took the opportunity to book for the next two bank holidays in May. They were almost booked up but managed to just fit us in. The first one will be on the 4th of May; can't wait now.

No tickets for us!!!
After 3 and a half hours, using two phones and 2 computers; we had the message: Sold out! With 400,000 people registered for tickets when there are only 150,000 tickets available; I knew it wasn't going to be easy, but we were still fairly confident that we'd get them. in the end, it felt devastating; as we couldn't have done any more, to secure the tickets. It now feels even worse since I have spent all that time wasted on such a beautiful Sunday morning. Oh well, it certainly wasn't due to lack of effort. Looks like it will be the Eden Project for us after all.
In consolation I bought tickets for mum (Chris' mum) and me to go and see "Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dream Coat", in May. It is a show that I have always wanted to see, so I feel a bit better for that.
Chris is working but when he finishes we are going out for dinner and we are so glad that we are going camping on Thursday, at least we do have that to look forward to.
Now I'm going out to enjoy the weather.
