A Blustry Day Out

Last week I had a rather exciting surprise...the unexpected return of my husband!

(Behind us is HMS Ark Royal's Anchor but it looks a bit like we are a double headed creature with giant bunny ears..oops.)

  It was lovely to see him as I wasn't expecting him back for another few weeks and we had a fab weekend spending every minute together.  First I gave him a tour of the house, which now feels much more like home now that he's seen it.  Then on Saturday we went down to the Hoe and Barbican to have a poke about.

It was extremely windy and rather colder than I expected..., despite squeezing a very thick woolly jumper under my jacket, bare legs was in hindsight maybe not such a sensible idea.  I love being outside on a good blustry day though, especially if there are fish and chips involved...which there were.

We walked all along the sea front and then as a break from being blown about we blew into a little antiques shop and had a fab time rummaging about in boxes of exciting things.  Edward shuffled off to look at comic books and plastic toys and I had a rather successful rummage through a cutlery box.

£7.50 for the lot - bargain!

Nothing like polishing tarnished cutlery for instant satisfaction.
