Oh what fun we had

Last Thursday James and I went to see Madness at the Hydro. Although they are about our age and their music was part of our youth we have never seen them in concert until now. What a good show they put on! They had the whole audience singing and dancing. Our pleasure was further enhanced by being upgraded to entrance to a lounge, where there was a quiet bar and more importantly comfy seats to lounge about on. My favourite song was "Our House" which was just as good as I had hoped.

I'm still far too overloaded at work but I'm being a bit more successful at switching off from it when I'm at home. All in all the term has gone well.

More fun was to come on Saturday when Ally arrived home from Oslo. Although we have skyped and face timed regularly we haven't seen him in person since September so when I picked him up from the airport it was really good to hug him and kiss him. He must have missed me a bit because he let me do the hugging and kissing without putting up a fight! Once Ally was home it wasn't long before beautiful Cat arrived - Christine and Gerry kindly gave her a lift to our house from a family party and we invited them in for a drink. Cat and Ally were very taken with the kittens and Tom and Ruby seemed delighted with the attention.
