Were all going to the Zoo tomorro...er...last weekend

So Wayne had disappeared on a stag do to Oktoberfest in Munich and I was left wondering what to do what to so with myself ...so i did the logical thing, invited my mum to stay and had a girly weekend.

On Friday we looked at all the furniture we wouldn't buy in Ikea...then on Saturday we decided to go to Tycross zoo. We didn't get to see the show leopards but we did see lots of monkeys, elephants penguins and a baby orangutan and a litter of baby meerkats.

We then went to find hobbycraft in Coventry, we failed and ended up at a garden center in the middle of the country.

On Sunday we cooked a roast and spent the afternoon playing cards ans scrabble... I lost lots

We then went and picked a very tired and hungover Wayne ... who brought some yummy looking chocolate back from Germany

Lucky Duck!

I have just been to the garden center with mum.

We were greeted with free strawberries and cream, and then informed that they where having a charity garden party and there were tents with fair games that we could play on so we decided to have a go a hook a duck!

I won some writing paper but mum won the star prize which was a choice of a small BBQ, some solar lights or a mini green house. She picked the green house and was so chuffed that she talked about it for a further hour and a bit as we went round the garden center and all the way home.

The mini green house is 1.5 m tall and approx 0.5 in width and depth so not to small.

Mum is a happy bunny and is currently planting cabbages...

well done mum!
