Saturday was fab. Met mum at the station at 10.40am and we gossiped like kids on the train into Brighton. We met up with ma-in-law up town, after being accosted by kids offering religion and their prayers. Honestly, have they nothing better to do on a sunny Saturday afternoon?
I was shopped out pretty quickly, did come away with two lovely jackets, matching trousers etc not found, sadly for me but not for my credit card! Then we went for lunch at BHS. I'd planned to go to a nice restaurant where we could enjoy good cooking and a glass of wine, but was firmly slapped down by the mothers. Oh well, £15 or £40 for lunch? Makes sense I guess.
Mamma Mia was brilliant. It cost £7 a ticket so I'm glad! I'm not even a huge Abba fan but there was enough plot and humour for everyone. There were quite a few families in with young kids and it was good clean entertainment. There were also two older couples behind us, apparently the men folk had said "wake me when it finishes" but they were chortling loudest.
If you haven't seen it already, I do recommend it for a fun couple hours entertainment. That's Christmas wrapped up too as both mothers say they want the DVD for Xmas! Sorted.
After the film we shopped some more, before going to Starbucks for a final coffee before heading homewards. In the meantime, hubby had rung to advise that all the bits of our bathroom arrived without a hitch, just got to collar his old man to get it installed now! And I've to choose floor tiles too.
Got home to the smell of dinner cooking in the oven. Or at least being heated. Hubby had cheated with a couple of ready meals but we don't do it often and it was a nice surprise.
Sunday is still full of promises, the sun shines and the garden is calling me. I hope everyone else is as relaxed as me.

Sounds like a brilliant day out.
I’ll take your word about Mama Mia.
Are you now all achy from gardening?
