I have just been having a bit of a play with some new themes for the blog and have come across this one, which is actually new to try out. Let me know what you think of it for style (might not improve the content but you never know!

Quality time with the man in my life
My lovely hubby has spend much of the 6 weeks working nights. Well actually he has been working overtime and nights so that he has been leaving in the afternoon before I get in from work and not getting home until 7am, which has meant seeing about an hour of him per day. This at least prevents any arguments or generally getting fed up with each other, but then again it doesn’t allow for much in the way of interaction at all, and a tired man is generally not the happiest of men!

Yesterday we had a day out on our own to kind of catch up with each other. We considered the idea of a trip to the coast, but then settled on getting the train into central London and acting in a kind of touristy way. Hyde park was particularly crowded and indeed was looking pleasantly green. The good weather (oh how we have waited for more than 2 consecutive sunny and warm days) brought out families, people walking for Crohns disease, people roller blading, skateboarding and even just strolling. Hubby had the bright idea that we should walk from there to the banks of the Thames and that is one long walk. We had lunch in a pizza / pasta restaurant that for some unknown reason had no pasta yesterday!! Strangely typical of London that one! It was a nice pizza, but I just hope it doesn’t affect my weightloss that has been going well (9lb so far). Mind you the walking must have helped, and it meant we had time together when we were both awake to actually speak to each other in a grown up manner; maybe we’ll do it again soon!!
