Had a lovely time this week with John on holiday.  I went to see Mama mia with mum again on Wednesday afternoon which was very good, we saw it when it first came out and we both really enjoyed seeing it again.  Mum and Dad came round for tea on Thursday night and i made prawn and salmon lasagne which they enjoyed.  We then had pears and icecream.

On Friday, i took mum and joanne to I/N shopping which was lovely.  We went to the m s for lunch and joanne and i had chicken frittata followed by chicken on a parsnip puree which was very tasty.  Mum had peanut noodles then pork which she enjoyed also.  Joanne was 23 weeks pregnant this week or 24 going my her scan. Her bump is getting bigger, she is getting some hip/buttock pain, hopefully it'll get better soon. I bought Ross some pyjamas, a nice blue shirt and a jumper.  Joanne bought Owen a couple of nice tops.

SATURDAY 11TH OCTOBER

Mum and Dad came round to babysit Owen so John and I could take Ross to the R Castle. We went at 2pm and had a good time.

Afterwards we had coffee and walnut cake with mum and dad.

Tonight, Joanne and Chris are babysitting so John and I can go to the Sunn/hill for a meal at 8pm and then for a few drinks.  We are looking forward to our night out.

We had a lovely meal.  I had a large mushroom with haggis, leeks and bacon which was served with a whisky sauce and then i had lobster theridor which was lovely.  I had 2 glasses of red wine with the meal.  John had potato and leek soup then duck with orange and sherry sauce. He had a couple of beers with the meal. We then went to the coop/age and i had a bud and then went to the thun/ton and i had a couple more buds and john had smirnoff ice.  We went home at 11.15 as didn't want to be too late for jo and chris.  They loved babysitting the boys.
