We are having a family gathering today to celebrate Rebecca’s 19th birthday and so with apologies, I don’t have time to have an original thought and come up with a decent blog. (Do I ever??) Some of you may of course point out that there is very little original thought in these things anyway….but still….
So like most TV channels do these days, with their +1 channels, showing the same stuff an hour later, I shall instead let you re-enjoy the content from last year for her 18th in the form of video…so it’s plus one year rather than an hour!
You should be out enjoying the sun anyway!
I shall make one small observation. For those of you with young children, wondering when the madness will end and you won’t be constantly exhausted, worried and a general basket case. Don’t hold your breath. As a small example of the different ways your older children may torment you, last night, well technically this morning, about an hour after going to bed my phone rang. I didn’t wake in time to answer, and so saw I had a missed call from Rebecca. Knowing she was out celebrating, we of course wondered why she had rung and if she was now in some ditch or en route to some drug den having been kidnapped.
Texts, calls and Facebook messages were unanswered and so Louise and I spent a lovely forty minutes or so in a mild state of panic. Of course, we then got an apologetic text telling us she had dialed me by mistake and all was well.
It took about another hour for the adrenaline to wear off and for us to get back to sleep. Sometimes, I yearn for changing nappies!
Till the next time…..

I’ve just finished reading your trippie books (again!)… Will you be releasing a new version from 2014 onwards?? Pllleeeaaassseee!!
Kind of you to ask (or care). I think there’s only 2015 that isn’t out as a book….if time allows then I’d like to yes.
Where can i find 2014? I only have up to 2013..
Ha…I know it’s hard to believe but we didn’t go in 2014 🙂
Omg I needed a cuppa to get over that shock! Ahhh, I’ll be at a loss once I’ve finished 2013 (again!!)… I’m just trying to pass the time until we can book again by absorbing every drop of any memories I can find!
