Weekend round up

Another busy weekend, though not quite over yet.

Friday evening we helped our friend Colin celebrate his 60th birthday, dinner at Old Fire Engine House at Ely.

Saturday - we spent the day working on the garden room.  The rest of the outside painting has been completed and the new guttering is on. The brickwork has been painted with black bitumous paint.  All the new wood on the replaced base plate has been painted inside, so a productive day.  Again, Rachel helped us out, she comes in real handy for the high bits, being so tall.  Saturday evening we went up to Stamford to babysit Rufus while his mum and dad had a well earned evening out with their friends, we had curry takeway which was very good.

Sunday - up early listening to Rufus chatting in his cot!  We spent the morning playing, amazing what fun you can have with a garden trug and some plastic balls.  He really is getting about now, starting to walk along the furniture, crawling all over the place though he gets around much quicker with his trousers off.  His hair is growing too, and is coming through the same lovely strawberry blonde as his mum, he really is our Rufus the Red.

We came home just before lunch to get on with some work, but to be honest I can't get up any enthusiasm for it now. Maybe later, or then again I may just curl up on the sofa with my knitting.
