Morrissey!

The Morrissey concert at Brixton Academy in London last night was great! We ended up driving as lots of the trains were down for maintainence which was actually much quicker, although we did end up parking in quite a dodgy looking area. But all was well, we got in quickly and there wasn’t too much of a wait. We were standing in the stalls right in the centre not far from the stage so we had a good view, and his performance was one of the best I have seen. It was well worth the wait, this concert was originally supposed to be in May but got postponed because Morrissey was ill. Stuart got a really nice official tshirt and I got a cheaper one outside, which I proudly wore to work today!

The rest of the weekend was busy too, the sanding and painting got done over the two days, which meant that our gorgeous new dresser(!!!) could be put into its new home. I just need some time to fill it up now! And the three of us had a lovely meal out on Saturday to celebrate Holly’s good school report, where we discovered that she is quite good at balancing a spoon on her nose! We also did some successful holiday shopping where Holly and I both got new bikinis that were wonderful bargains.

I’m a bit weary tonight after last nights excitement so I’m still not sure if I’ll manage to start on the new fabric boxes I have planned. Especially since so far I have spent over two hours podding/blanching/shelling/cooking all of these broad beans from our allotment as I can’t wait to eat them! : )
