No more supermarkets.....ash wednesday

Its the begining of Lent( a time of self reflection and preperation for EASTER) this year as a family we have decided to abstain from using supermarkets. just go local and see what happens.
( to make it worse we have no car , its in the guarage for a few weeks) The nearest one is the corner shop but very basic. the other place is up a major sheffield hill. ahhhhhhh

Mother in laws bucket list.


Gina's mum has just finished her second Chemo sessions. She asked if we could all go away as a family with Gina's Brother's family. We have just had a great week in Norfolk, Hunstanton. It was in a cabin, the warmest caravan we have ever been in, full central heating and ensuite.

we had a fab first day playing pitch and put, 18 holes and was beaten by Gina's Brother. We had an afternoon at the circus. the beach was great, shame the sun was not out. We all visited the sea life centre and and saw the seals and sharks.

i learnt 6 different ways of playing poker and cooked indian and had a full cooked breakfast and pancakes made for me.
Josh even won the young tallent competion( well joint top and the other 4 were under 4 years old)

We pray that Gina's mum enjoys more of life in all that she does.
