Well, had a busy few weeks since last here!
Firstly I went to the Boyzone concert, it was fantastic, am now deaf in one ear because a woman behind us kept shrieking any time Shane Lynch appeared on the big screen, but in fairness I could see her point! And as for little scrawny Ro, never judge a book by its cover! They all stripped off their tops at one stage, I think the woman behind me may have fainted, there was silence for about 5 seconds, they really had been working very hard in the gym! My only hope for next week is that Daniel O'Donnell has been working as hard. The things I let myself get talked into! DH thinks it's hilarious that I have front row seats for Daniel, my mother and grandmother are secretly delighted but they haven't told my Dad yet, I'm under instructions not to hand over the ticket to him until we are at the seats :-)
I handed over my first wedding invites last Sunday, in a carpark of a hotel on the M1, very clandestine but the bride was in rush. She loved them as did her h2b, so I was more than relieved. She is a lovely girl and really nice to deal with. No bridezillas at all!
So that brings me to Barcelona, here I am since yesterday, and just to rub it in, left dublin yesterday in the pouring rain and 2 and a bit hours later got off a plane to blue skies and heat! the joy of wearing my new sunglasses to keep sun out intstead of just to tone down the glare off the grey clouds!
DH left for registration of his conference at 7.30 this morning and I haven't been able to go back to sleep, hence the blogging! Shops dont open until 10 so I'm biding my time, there are sales everywhere and size 16s as well so I'm in my element!
The only bad thing is I have picked up Als cold, so am all stuffed up but I am armed to the teeth with uniflu and strepsils so that's keeping the miserable side of the cold at bay!
OK, was looking at the clock in the corner of the laptop, but have just discovered that it is on Irish time, am off to the shops!
Thanks for stopping by.

PS: notice no mention of Wexford hurlers this week.........Kilkenny destroyed them, the minors too, oh well the footballers are our only hope of silver ware this season, but aginst the Dubs so I won't be getting too excited yet........
