I've had a lovely weekend. I'm a little surprised to say that as The Beautiful Son and Beautiful Baby Daughter have gone to Scotland to stay with their paternal grandparents. I don't usually cope well without my full complement of offspring but I'm managing surprisingly well. Had a lovely day on Saturday with Eldest Beautiful Daughter and then had the perfect Saturday evening with The Beautiful Man.
Then on Sunday, my friend Jo and I went to Leeds. Me likey, the Victorian Quarter was lovely and I've never seen so many designer handbags, it was almost like being in Glasgow ! The Starbucks on the Briggate was lovely and there was a hot emo boy serving, EBD has taught me how to spot them. She rang me while I was out and asked if I'd spotted any and when I told her I had, she asked why I hadn't taken his photo ?
The reason she rang me was to ask should she peg the washing out. Now I know that I always say that she's decorative but not functional but this is a bright child, sitting 10 GCSEs and predicited A and A stars for most of them, and she's asking me when I am a 2 hour drive and 100 miles away, in a different county, should she peg the washing out as it looked like rain !!!
I've had a technologically challenging morning trying to book a hotel and claim my priority points whilst trying to convince them that I'm not Mr Laurie Sansome, using the membership number they've sent me on my e statement. I should have checked if he had more points than me before denying it really. I'm off to Bicester today, where I will meet himself at the Starbucks there, I have now realised that I have been to a Starbucks daily for the last 4 days. Himself is right I should just set up a tab and a direct debit from my bank account.

About Me
- auntiegwen
- When I started this blog in 2007 I was a single parent with 3 children aged 14, 11 and 10. Now in 2016, every one of those children has grown up and left home. I now live with my lovely best friend, my second and last husband and fellow blogger Mr Adventures in Reality and part of the time with the boy wonder, the one he made earlier. We try and outwit the offspring, do the house up and travel as much as we can.

Spooky... I was in that Starbucks in Leeds last Wednesday!!! There was a hot.. eh.. lady there at the time but I'm too shy and retiring to tell you the initials I'd normally associate with her...
Maybe you should do what Himself said and set up an account at Starbucks?? LMAO. Wouldnt that be something huh??? LMAO
Emo boys seem to serve most places you go these days - or is it just most places I go to these days???
Edge I 'd love to know those initials
newf - fab idea
gwen - don't tell EBD or she's insist on living with her nana in Glasgow if she thinks hot emo boys are everywhere
I won't tell EBD because there is quite an abundance of hot emo boys in Glasgow. Expecially hanging about Central Station of a Saturday night waiting to get into The Tunnel. Obviously for non Glaswegians that is "The Tunnel" nightclub - not the train tunnel but you never know!
