How are the “Ber” Months treating you so far?  Here in the UK we have had one storm come through but not too much damage, but we have had a lot of rain, to make up for all the dry summer we had.  I am so glad that we got our roof looked at and repaired otherwise we would have had another leak into the bedroom that we have only just painted!!  There is always something!  However despite the dry summer and now all the rain the leaves are only just beginning to fall from the trees, I thought they would have shed them a lot sooner than this, although the colours are not as striking as usual.

As it is Thursday today I will show up a couple of #TBT pictures of the Boys when they were little.  In the UK we have what are called “Half Terms” where the schools have a week’s holiday  generally at the end of the month this time October and around Halloween and DH’s Birthday.  Jayne and I used to take her two and my two out for a trip and then they used to come round for the afternoon and evening and we would do Halloween games and I would read a Ghost story, it was good fun and my two still remember doing it.

DH & I took The Boys to London at Half Term in October 2005.  We took them on a boat trip on the Thames down to The Tower of London 

Here they are with a Beefeater at The Tower

How can these pictures be twenty years old?  Eldest was ten and Youngest was six!  Then for a couple of years DH and I have been down in London, once for his Birthday and once for our Anniversary which is November but we went at the end of October.

We went to the Charles Dickens Museum which was really interesting

We also went to the Greenwich Observatory which has a commanding view of London

Obviously we won’t be going to London this year with my Op etc so again hoping that we will be able to book for next year.  We are having the trees in our garden trimmed in two weeks so I should be able to show you some pictures of  the garden then.  Also have some bedding plants to put in my pots for over winter and also the Spring Bulbs to plant.  I am hoping that the weather is going to be kind for a couple of days to get these jobs done.

Happy Thursday you lovely lot.

Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx
