a prayer for ENGLAND

Our father who
leads our lions, 
CAPPELLO be your name, 
our time has come,
let the trophy be won, 
in Africa as it was once at wembley, 
give us this day a Rooney goal, 
and forgive us our last performance, 
as we forgive those that
played that game for us, 
and lead us not into the airport,
but deliver us from group C, 
for England is the kingdom, we want the power and glory, 
forever and ever, amen!!! 
COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!

great prayer William...  

REFURBISHMENT - MASTER BEDROOM...

hi everyone,   yu'know what I've emptied our  Bedroom/Bathroom,  already purchased the bathroom fittings even though I say it myself - very nice indeed...
our foreman David Marsh from    http://davidmarshfurniture.co.uk  is doing the work but before we start
we have to dismantle everything : firstly organise a skip!  empty room (this has been a bit traumatic for Ed 'cos I've had to rid of a few of his things! in the way of course but  not that  useful at all...) that was yesterday -  so today  David is removing the tiles, taking the existing bath, loo and sink out... hopefully quite a lot can be done he has said he's knocking off at @ 2.30pm to watch the ENGLAND match - not sure if he should has work needs to be done - so we'll see    anyway in the meantime I'm still promoting our Book the Hairy Plug Monster : http://www.hairyplugmonster.com

have a great day...

refurbishing a bedroom...

well it's the end of the day and what a great day it was...we had a lovely lunch at Nadia's for Fathers Day...
then home to sort out our  bedroom as we are reorganising it with a new bathroom and new wardrobes (not before time either) so my design skills will be put to the test...
in order to start we have to vacate the room because the bathroom will be completely striped and thats gunna cause a right mess.  I had to start with emptying clothes from the closet (things not worn for centuries) off to the tip - typically you always think your gunna wear these damn clothes  never throw them out and before you know it you have mountains of stuff begging to be thrown away so today was that day yippee! out with the old  also I've had to  reorganise another room temporarily to sleep in -
this way the builder/forman has an empty room to start  plus he is on a time scale and I'm certainly  not giving him any excuse for delays because there can't be any!!!!!  anyway I will manage the project and as long as all the materials are delivered and all contractors know what there doing it  should run smoothly - but we shall see....   so all in all it's been very productive....
have a good nights sleep everyone  and i'll update again - you never know it could be tomorrow!!!

time away in Italy...

Italy - a great place to hang out... with Leighroy, Julia, Arisha & Maya... (picture on the left  - on the rocks at Marina di Massa)

a fraction of the family - yes and i mean a fraction.... there's plenty more that didn't have time to come away with me - but hey my place is minuscule in comparison to
the amount of kids and grandkids  i have - i would  need a 10 bedroom villa, at least 6 bathrooms + 2 kitchens, a massive room to relax in when the day is done and then it would be nice to have a live in housekeeper to clean up after them!!!! (one can but dream)
"so for now I will enjoy what I have created  'elegance and luxury!!!!!!' (my opinion)   with 2 acres of land, olive trees and a vine yard - i'm very lucky to own something so dear to my heart ;  a 2 bedroom villa is plenty big enough for me to cope with and maybe in the future????? I can dream of the rest   - mind you the families who visit all do there fair share of chores even though it may be their holiday -  so all in all we had a lovely time away;   glorious sunshine (dawn till dusk) beachin' it everyday with packed lunches and lots of fruit - cherry's at the moment are in season and you could buy bucket loads
(like we did) they were divine...  followed by a really nice home cooked meal made by Leighroy or me : in fact we did take it in turns to cook! -  then soaked up by a good bottle of VINO ROSSO - a good nights sleep to wake up the next morning with breakfast on the terrace - very nice indeeeedy....
Ok ok ok  - thats it for today I'm just wafflin' on -  making simple food tonight of Grilled Salmon with fresh salad;  oh and by  the way,  I've just made some chocolate eclairs  OMG! they are so easy to make and so delicious - if you go on our blog:      www.hairyplugmonster.blogspot.com   you will find a simple recipe on there (posted last month or maybe earlier) and in the picture above is the author of 'the Hairy Plug Monster'  Leighroy Marsh with his family of females (even his dog is a female!))
it's now nearly 4ish (1600hrs) so all you people out there -  have a jolly good evening, the sun is still shining  and we may even eat outside in the garden!!!
