£32.20p.................

 ......that's what I came home with on Sunday after getting rid of 3 boxes of stuff  at the Sunday boot-sale.

I did say I'd never sell at boot sale EVER again but there were things that I didn't need and the weather forecast was fine and it seemed a good idea to get stuff out of the way before the Surrey family come up to stay at Easter.

They are here for my Big birthday family meal. The first idea was a party but I said I didn't have enough friends to invite! then someone suggested renting a large holiday house but it happened to be Easter weekend and it would have cost many, many £s! So I said let's just go out for a meal, so that's what we're doing with my sister and husband, Colin's sister and husband and BiL of course plus the 11 of us  and DiL is making a cake, hopefully without 70 candles - that could set the place on fire!

And while the Surrey boys are here I must remember to measure and actually record their heights this time, we completely forgot  to do the latter when they were here in January.

The pirate ship height measuring thing came from garage sales when we were living in Ipswich in 2016

 - when EGS was only a few weeks old. It moved house with me  and  now it's covered with labels - names, dates and height for all 5 grandchildren.

They all  look at it when they visit to see if they are taller/shorter than their cousins were at the same age and to see how much they've grown  - which is just what I hoped when we bought it.

Back Soon
