Some Quick Snappy Updates (due to time constraints!)

These are in no particular order of importance!

1. Mark seems to be coping ok with the death of his Mum - a little up and down, but nothing more than expected.
2. John (his Dad) is still staying with us in the main - although is more prepared to spend time at home during dylight hours at least. Night times seem to be his biggest hurdle at the moment - although he has made a little progress and managed to stay there alone for a couple of nights or so last week. Must be impossible for him.
3. I have had the fastest fallout EVER in terms of gym attendence... It usually takes me a good few months (around 8) to fall into bad habits and not actually go - but with circumstances as they have been, and some time devoted to Mark's Dad, my attendence rate is atrocious! I *have* started a spinning class ona Friday, which I am really enjoying... although it is actually killing me! MUST endeavour to go at least twice a week!!
4. I went orienteering a couple of weekends ago - and loved it! Am hoping to do more!
5. Mark and I went to Oxford last weekend... we combined an away Histon FC footie match with a look around the city. Gorgeous place! Although, I understand that as a Cambridge resident I am supposed to spit on the ground whenever it is mentioned... Mark thinks that my view of it was skewed by the unseasonal gorgeous spring weather we have been having, but I am yet to be convinced.
6. Histon FC got pasted by Oxford United... the less said (although it makes Mark's prejudice complete!).
7. Tonight I am selling tickets for a home match... fingers crossed for that! I have my long john's at the ready... boy I know how to get myself up for a night out! ;-)
8. Work has been very busy (hence snappy updates).
9. Mia is fat. Really really fat.
10. So am I.
11. Benjamin William Miles is ridiculously cute.
12. Paris is the capital of France.
13. My sister's new shop in Southwold is doing really nicely - rather splendidly named "Crabapple"... I wonder what genius came up with that?
14. Jen wears white socks in her powder room, and is holding a 'bra party'. heh (just checking to see if you are reading).
15. Marta is a tricky young spaniard that eats cheesy sausages all day long.
16. I am now acknowledged as world leader of documentation, and am hoping to spread my remit to Histon Netball Club and Histon FC (well the fund raising committee at least).
17. The kitchen is half done, and is looking fabulous. I have a genius for a boyfriend.
18. Jarvis's days may well be numbered....

Anyway... speak soon! Love to all,
Hayley
