And... we're back!

Bill is away again for an extended period and he has internet access so I thought it might be a good time to start up the 'ole blog again. No promises, though, on how regular this will be. I'll aim for every couple of days, though.
Alex and Charlotte celebrated their birthdays on Sunday with their (and my) closest friends. It was a lovely day, hot and sunny, and filled with sugary treats. I've been eating cake for over a week now. My mum made a lovely barn yard birthday cake, half of which is still in my kitchen but disappearing piece by yummy piece every night.
