Monday, Monday!

It was very foggy yesterday and today, typical November days!  Saturday was a nice day and DH and I got some garden tidying done.

Yesterday morning we were with Eldest who was passing out from his Fire training.

We then went outside at the Fire HQ for a demonstration from the crew of some of the things they have trained for.

The crew having finished the first demonstration.

They then showed us putting a car fire out.

They also showed us a demonstration of cutting a car up.  As you can see it was still very foggy outside!  Afterwards they treated all of the families and the recruits to a buffet lunch.  We are very proud of him.

Then DH and I went to the swimming pool to set up for the second Club Championships, which went very well and we were finished by 7.30pm.  It was a long day but good fun.

This week, for me, is a mix of work and fun things.  Tomorrow I am going with my very good friend Jayne Christmas shopping in Nottingham, then to Eldest’s garage on Wednesday, home jobs Thursday and Friday I will be doing the Christmas baking and sorting out my quilting.  We will also be wrapping the Christmas presents and writing the Christmas cards!  DH has a busy weekend with swimming events both days so I will be able to get some quilting done.

I hope you lovely lot have a wonderful week. 

Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx

    We have been binging Chicago Fire here for the last month. There are 11 seasons and we are in season 7 and we are loving it! Congrats to Eldest! We have the utmost respect for the firefights and all of the brave acts they perform to save lives.
    Have a great time shopping with Jayne. My daughter and I shopped this past Saturday and had a wonderful time even though neither one of us bought anything.
