Home again

Got back yesterday from 5 days with the family.  And instantly wished I'd taken Thursday off too.  I must remember in future how tiring holidays are...

Life was made much easier by downloading joikuspot - which turned my phone into a WiFi hotspot.  I didn't spend much time online, but being able to look up phone numbers for shops and insurance companies saved us some useful time.  Having access to weather reports was handy too :->

Julie seemed to survive the family ok - all 16 of them (and 6 dogs).  I don't know how she manages it :->

Nice to be home now - and I have paintballing to look forward to at the weekend!

Cuddle Sharks!

Awwww!
