You can’t always plan ahead. When I got married 25 years ago, I didn’t realise that years later I would be celebrating my Silver Wedding just at that critical moment when I would need to make all those last minute decisions before the imminent release of my website. Come to think of it, there wasn’t even such thing as a website. But sometimes these things come at the right time even if we don’t recognise it immediately.
So Wonderhubby and I set off on Eurostar leaving Teen 1 in charge of making sure that Teen 2 got out of bed every morning in time for school (We have to trust them on that one). We enjoyed a lovely few days in Paris, breakfast on a bench in The Champs de Mars, lunch in Les Tuileries and supper in a cosy little bar (do you see a theme developing here?). I would love to share more memories in pictures with you but unfortunately, just as I was snapping Wonderhubby in front of the Eiffel Tower, I dropped my i-phone/camera shattering the screen into a thousand pieces. Few other mishaps to report apart from standing in the wrong queue at Versailles for nearly 2 hours!
It all passes too quickly but I realise how refreshed I’m feeling and ready to tackle that website launch. Now I’m on the way home through the tunnel on Eurostar and I’m looking forward to seeing the girls and giving them my gifts from Galeries Lafayette. Having left bright sunshine and 25C in Paris we arrive to a freezing grey Newcastle with rain bouncing off the pavement. Never mind, lots of happy memories to keep me warm.
