Long Time!....But Here it is Living in a new house in Wigan You're nearly 50!...

Kids 12 and 14 Off on Hols to USA again next week. Got 2 Labs(Jake and Pip) and 2 silver cars(clio and megane).

You got that teachers job at the Deanery and have been there 4 years. Me in the same job!

Both kids in same school as you with the little girl is in year 7, boy in year 9.

Both Nana and GG doing ok after cancer - tough devils.

L - 1st year in big school and u have gr8 friends- just been to Alton Towers for ur birthday. Loved the scary rides mum said. Set 1 becons for English and you movie making and singing is coming along a treat. Swimming every week at Leigh and did triathlon last week. Really impressed with all your hard work in school and the way u make me laugh. Love taking u swimming and Maccies on the way home - treasure those moments with u always! Please clean ur room! Your into makeup and hairdressing (stupid head u work on all day doing hairstyles), movie making, farting loudly, leaving food all over u bedroom, playing with dogs but never taking them out, having Leah over, doing homework,never asking mum for maths help!, reading, singing, dancing, guitaring!

K- Offered RL scholarship at Wigan and Saints 2 weeks ago. Wigan were gr8 but u chose Saints(broke our hearts)...but brave and honest choice by you. Your a top lad, handled it all well. Wigan offered to take u on the pitch today!(Wigan v Widnes) and stick a Wigan shirt on your back infront of the crowd (Connor Said this)...still u said no...Bigger and better than I will ever be u traitor! Enjoy the next 2 years son, I am sure u will give it ur best. Hope u get 2 Aus after all this angish. Your into tight tops, girls, RL, watching RL on tv all time, not doing homework, avoiding eating, swearing, keeping ur room prestine!, breaking our hearts, laughing at Nan, pulling the dogss ears.

C- worked ridiculously hard again this year and achieved top maths marks in school history. Stage 3 leader becons - interview this Thursday(in the bag!). Hope next year doesnt kill u - I am sure u will make a gr8 job of it all. Worry bt your eating and lack of exercise - hopefully 6 week break will help(mmmmh). Good 2 c u happy at St Pats, but the game wont get any easier to watch - especially at Saints!

Work is poor...never changes but it pays the bills! Bye 4 now

10/10/07 - Brand New Start

6, 8 and 43 - thats how old you all are and this is for you.

How often I update this will be interesting to see but it will give you an insight into my thoughts, those I share and dont share, so you can look back and get a better understanding of what it was all about.

This week I've mostly been eating anything!

Straange! week with a new fireplace going into the front room - old one ripped out and grandad going all quiet on the phone when he realised he wouldnt be getting it - ho hum

Little girl - going into school a lot happier, never a question of you coming out happy! 2nd year teacher is daunting but pushing you to do your work because you are bright and very conscientious. Starting swimming lessons again today - you do swim gracefully for such a young girl.

Little boy - went training last night and enjoyed the rough and tumble again. Rugby is so much fun for you and how I wish you could play against older children who will test you more - that will come I guess. School is interesting but the girls in your class are in charge - need to stick up for yourself to bring about the equilibrium. Great with the rabbits, born to look after animals after the way you are with the dog aswell.

Mum - working hard every night until 11:30 doing homework - how I cant wait till you qualify. Full of self doubt before the course started and now enjoying the learning - if not the travelling! Please dont overdo it, remember there is also a life to live.

Me - well all is ok at work and I just enjoy getting through each day to get home and be with you all. Weekends are fun when we go caravaning or swimming or riding bikes! Which reminds me -Little girl - you can now ride your bike, loved watching you try so hard this weekend and then ride all round the carpark, even falling off and causing your knees to bleed...but no tears.

Yesterday I came home and saw you dressed in a lovely light purple skirt and green top - 10 minutes later you were in a pink tracksuit and trainers pleading to go out on the bike when it was 8pm - pitch black and cold. The answer to that didnt go down well!

Sore back being corrected by a chiropractor at the moment, not looking too good but I guess old age does now play a part. Slightly worried about my poo and wee, but I always worry about something. Mostly worried about money and little boy playing professionally when he is older - not that the possibility of that is too great in sport but even if that does materialise I would fear greatly for his wellbeing - thats not a sport you take on purely for enjoyment.

Toolroom roof need doing - at least flashing putting on. Wall of said room needs rendering - got mix for that! Outside ledge for bedroom needs painting. Also need to decorate the front room once fire is installed.

Cars - meriva (marron) and sorento(red)
1 big red lovely dog, 2 cute rabbits (months old) and 5 fish(lovely clean tank!)
1 broadband connection + 1 laptop + 2 grandads(sort of!) + 2 nans - definately a topic for another time!

Bye
