Good morning all, it's sunny at the moment here after lots of rain and it's very windy.
No plans today apart from buy some bananas and see my parents tonight. I think John's going cycling this afternoon, depending on the weather.
Had a great time with Joe yesterday. We had an hour to kill when we got into Manchester so Joe decided he'd like to see the players leave their hotel so, like a pair of stalkers, we went and stood outside the Lowry until they got on their bus. I loved that, not just seeing the team but watching Joe interact with other supporters, he was chatting away so easily to people, young and old, and I thought "Yep, you've grown up so much"
Once we got to the stadium he had to decide which player he was going to curse by buying a new shirt with a player's name on. Last season it was Memphis, this year poor Anthony Martial is the one destined for a bad season
Saundra, that's what we've always done, gone out of season when it's a bit cooler because none of us are really suited to heat (John's freckly and a former red head, Tom's a red head and me and Joe are pale and blondish
) Certainly in the 6 weeks holiday though John has difficulty taking time off with his job but we've sometimes worked it by booking around the Oct and May half terms or Easter so that they had some days off school and we were also away during the holiday. That was all before the fines came in though but it could be cheaper to pay the fine and go term time than go during the Summer holidays when prices are inflated.
Have a good day all!
