Accidents

Why is it that children seem to have accidents and then do the same thing again less than a week later!

Well this happens to us all the time. Like today, after having a lovely meeting about my daughter going into reception and then a nice look around the local garden centre. I got back to school to be told she had fallen over her own feet and had a very nasty looking cut on her nose. Which is broken, not much can be done and the doctors don'y even x-ray then any more.

This only being just a week since she hurt her nose on the walk to school!
Some people say it just that she is growing.

I just hope it heals quickly

Three Phantoms

Well what a night I had last night. I went to see Three Phantoms at Milton Keynes. As a late birthday present for my birthday last year.

Before the show we went for dinner at Giraffe restaurant as I had £40 vouchers. The food was so yummy and the puddings were, well let me put it this way I think it is going to take me a week to burn off the calories!

After a short walk to the theatre we were let in and where we sat in the second row from the front, nice and close. The opening of the show was so funny and we were told that we could take photos and film if we wish and it was encouraged.
(see pics below)

The show was a mix of songs from musical theatre with a big section on the various versions of The Phantom of the Opera, including Love Never Dies, which is set 10 years after phantom, finally ending with The Phantom of the Opera.
The cast are all former members of the show, who have played The Phantom, Mr Earl Carpenter, Mr Stephen John Davis & Mr Matt Cammelle.
And no Phantom would be without his Christine and we were delighted to be in the presents of the great, wonderful and beautiful Rebecca Caine, who originated the role of Cosette in Les Mis and was also the Canadian Christine staring next to Colm Wilkinson.





My husband, not normally a musical fan, that's my thing, really enjoyed himself too. (quote from his twitter account: How refreshing to be entertained by real singers who know their craft! Really enjoyed tonights show )

As we were allowed to film I took this footage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQ0lu1B1vww of Stephen singing Mr Cellophane from Chicago.

The photo above is the Three Phantoms talking about the Phantom

I came away from the theatre buzzing after a funny and very very enjoyable show and I finally got to meet Stephen and Rebecca who I have chatted to on twitter. They were both very kind and possed for pictures with me. I so want to go again and the next time they are near where I live is two days after my birthday

MMR

Well I've had to have the MMR! My son had to have his pre school injections and while talking to the nurse I found out I have never had the MMR.

Well when I was a child it was not around so we would have single injections. I remember having the Rubella at school, at the time is was only girls that had that one. This did show up on my medical records but not the single messels injection. So to be on the safe side I had to have the first does of the MMR jab, at the same time my son had his second dose. Then four weeks later back for my second dose.

Now I am all protected and thanks to my mum keeping my baby book. I found out I had messels in 1986 which could be why I have not had the single injection all those years ago. But at least I am now protected against Mumps which I have not had.

Look what has happened

The veg patch has come alive.
We have leeks, potatos, parsnips carrots, beetroot, spinach and purple sprouting brocolie. Hoping for a good year and we have already had one lot of spinach, which was yummy.

It is lovely that we can just go out and pick some veg and it is on the table in less than 30 mins.
