Three house guests, one trashed laptop, one tidy garage, one swapped bedroom and a big fat tumble dryer

Another weekend zipped by in our preparation for the arrival of the boy.

It didn't start off too well with a virus crashing the hard-drive of CK's windows skype laptop.

However things soon picked up with the arrival her great-grandfather and enough vegetables to sink a battleship and her grandmother who proceeded to turn it into enough soup that you could then re-float it again.

A day out for AG and big tidy-up of the garage followed, the plan being to turn it into a utility room to cope with the increased amount of washing, our efforts were rewarded with a local Italian meal, nice.

Then onto Sunday and following the arrival of my Irish friend we swapped the guest and children's rooms over and added in AG's new cute little bed, which she found made for a good trampoline, hiding place, climbing frame and no-where that she was interested in sleeping.

Then a flying visit to my parents to fix some lighting and then home to a vampire program and a well earned beer.

Up again with the dawn on Monday to take delivery of a tumble dryer for our utility room before heading to work and wondering where the weekend went!
