new car day!

We collected the car/bus with much excitement from this pair and then I just about made it on time to my director’s retirement do in a posh restaurant in Manchester afterwards. Lovely but too late a night for a fatty such as myself, I was practically asleep in the taxi on the way home with my very merry colleagues.

Other highlights of the day were an unexpectedly quiet morning (though of course I missed you GloryGlory), then doing lunch for and an afternoon of chatting with a few fellow pregnant types, one of whom has only recently moved here and is much in need of chat. I can’t imagine how hard it is to deal with new parenthood in a new country.
