Vickie spent the morning at home with Liam - he got a call from Harrods offering him a Christmas temp job in the wine department - go Liam!! He has two days of induction starting tomorrow.
We had lunch together and then walked down to Marsh Road shops. Half way there we got a call to collect Pip from the hospital so walked back. We dropped both her and Liam at the station as they both need to be back in London. Vickie and I had attempt two at going to Marsh Road shops - we had just parked when Pip rang to say she had forgotten something - so back home we went. At attempt three we made it to the shops - but got caught in a heavy shower of rain!
Sam, Vickie and I had dinner together - Dawn, Pip's Godmother, was to have joined us but she was unwell so couldn't. We had an early night as Sam is on earlies this week.
Tuesday 30th October
Vickie had a day home alone today as the young ones were still in London and Sam and I were at work. We went out in the evening with Vickie's friend Deb to have a carvery at the Moat House.
Wednesday 31st October
Vickie and I went into Dunstable this morning to do a few bits and pieces. Pip came home early and made some Halloween cupcakes.We then waited for Denise and Tony to arrive for lunch - they eventually arrived at 4.30! Charlotte came over after Sam got home from work. Pip and Sam carved two pumpkins. Once Denise and Tony had gone home we had dinner and sat chatting. Charlotte said goodbye to Vickie as she won't see her again before her flight.
Thursday 1st November
I was at work today and as Pip didn't need to be at the hospital until 9.00 I didn't drop her off. Instead Vickie walked her up to the hospital with Pixel.
When I got home we walked down to the library to print off Vickie's boarding pass and get a few bits in Lidl - Vickie struggled to see the numbers on the pin machine - she felt she needed to be shorter but the assistant showed her how to lift it up!
We all had dinner together - vegan spag bol followed by icecream and fruit - very delicious!
We spent Vickie's last evening chilling, watching tv and chatting.
Friday 2nd November
Sam swapped her early today so she had time to say goodbye to her mum this morning. I went into work an hour late so I could take Vickie and Pip to Luton airport to catch the coach to Heathrow ready for Vickie's flight. Six weeks has gone so quickly - we have done lots and had a great time being all together again!
