Where Has The Week Gone

I can't believe another week has gone by, where does the time go. I definitely feel that as I get older time seems to speed up. This isn't to bad when you can look back and feel that you achieved something but can be frustrating when when you can't. However the last week or so has been hectic and as I look around I am slowly ticking off the jobs.

It has not all been work though and we have had some fun. We even had a night away from the little ones which was nice, a quick trip to Roscoff and back on the Ferry, so not only a night away from the little ones but also a night at sea. As expected we both missed them and kept talking about them but it was a nice break.

The Ferry departed at 2200 so we got to the terminal at about 2000 expecting there to be a bar where we could have a pre-sail tipple, unfortunately as it was out of season the cafe in the terminal was shut. Being prepared however I had a bottle of wine and plastic glasses in the overnight bag which helped pass the time before boarding.

Roscoff itself although picturesque was a little disappointing as there is very little there, I did have a nice croissant and coffee in one of the cafes though which was relaxing and it was good to wake up in a different country.

We got home after the little ones had gone to bed so did not see them until the morning,I did smile the next day though as little Elizabeth said 'I missed you Daddy' and then gave me a big hug.

Debbie had a girly night away Friday and left me home alone with the little ones. The little monsters took pity on me and were good as gold which was nice, they were all tucked up in bed by 1900 so I could watch a bit of telly and play modern warfare on the WII in peace. It was another late night but I completed the game so I just need to master the online game now, or at least manage to survive more than 30seconds without getting shot.

As the weather was so wonderful on Saturday I took the little ones for another bike ride and thankfully managed to get to Bideford and back with no punctures.  I am just pleased that they enjoy going out in the trailer, although I wish they were a bit lighter as it is hard work pulling them along but it does me good and I am really looking forward to my next opportunity to go for a bike ride hopefully later in the week as I think the weather should be good for the second half of the week.
