Overnight stay in Sheffield booked on-line.

Train tickets for Mummy's Trip To London For Bigbrother's 70th booked on-line.

Next to look into Scotland train trip @ half-term and Wales @ Easter. This time last year I had everything booked up until November, but I haven't had the hwyl this year.

Mr Paddington  My best man and best friend lives in Sheffield so if you need any local gen you know where to come.

Mr Mull  Do think about coming over to Mull!

Bentonbag  I've promised the boys we will.  The Family Railcard runs out this month so Thunderthighs has been ordered to pick up a 16-25 leaflet and when that's done we'll be off for the Freedom of Scotand Travel Pass (Fester has his >60s and Ferretfingers and I go on his Disabled Person's Card).  The question is can we realistically do Newcastle-Tobermoray by train in one day or should we stop overnight in Oban and get the first ferry over?

Mr Mull  The first question is what day & dates would you be travelling on?  After that I can let you know what the options are.  Different days have different travelling options.  If you message me that would be great.

This maybe showing off (ok it is) but this is the dolly my great-niece found in her Xmas box.  

Dolly and yarn came from charity shops, 

Doc Martens' box covered with shiny paper, knitting by me (including knickers).

Reuse, recycle, regift.

Mrs Lasagne She’s lovely Ben, I bet she loved it xx.  They are the best sort of presents so much work and thought put into it xxxx❤️

Bentonbag It's what I enjoy doing so it's a win-win.  By the way, have you got Moana dolly's waist measurement?

Mrs Lasagne  You are so kind. I will measure her 😘

Bess Cavalier  Love the little teddy.

Bentonbag  Mum and Dad were RAF so I like to buy something off the RAFA stall.  There's a rubber duck looking for a good home.

Post Script

This yearBarnardo’s were selling their cards at £1 a pack (of 10) and 7metre gift wrap at £1 a roll.

We made it to Mull in the February of 2013 and had a magical picnic with Mr & Mrs Mull at Calgary Bay.  It was so warm we were able to go barefoot on the sand.
