The one about Burgers, Xbox, Chilli Me, The man and The Baby

Yeah… yesterday was quite an eventful day.

I absolutely LOVE twitups… the thrill of meeting people that even you know (sometimes better than real friends) even tho you have never seen in person before has something to it that gets me every time since my 1st incursions on the internet back about 15 years ago… Yes THAT  long…

Yesterday we met a couple that reminds me A LOT me and Vic when we were younger. Don;t ask me why… they just do. And I absolutely loved to meet them. I am Talking about Emma (from MeTheManand Baby), Jon and baby Oli

The plan for today was for the girls to go and learn how to make pasta… and the boys would stay here at the UrbanVox HQ and play XBox… Which we did… Jon trucidated me on FIFA2010 (he then admited that he plays it about 2hr a day… and I have never played it before… my excuse and I am sticking to it) and then I kicked his ass at HALO.

They were supposed to arrive at about 11AM but because of some hold ups at the M40 they got quite late and the girls missed the pasta thing… Which… lets put it like that… wasn’t such a bad thing because we had so much fun!! And we ate some awesome burgers for lunch! :)

Loads of shenanigans throughout the day including Oli peeing on the floor and Emma nearly giving me a heart attack because of it (seriously… I thought it was something serious… that he had grabbed a knife or something like that… this floor has seen pee before… so no biggie).

We had talks of embarrassing stories, school vandalism (I am happy to say that I was not as bad as I thought I was at school) and exchanges of bad parenting stories.

I’d like to think that true friendship was cemented yesterday. Specially after “my house elves made coffee” (Internal Joke… hehehehe)

Friends embarrass each other right??? So let’s roll the embarrassing pictures then

Hope to see them soon!!!! (That will be this saturday at the BabyShow in B’Ham… yayyyyyy!!!)

zya!

PS… Did I mention Emma hates her pictures taken??? muahuahuahuahua…

Mini coffee Twitup and then more coffee! :)

So we went to meet up with Luschka and the cute Kyra (from Diary of a  First Child) today to have some coffee and have conversations about all and nothing.

I know I know… I belong behid the camera, but the girs said it was a good photo so WTH… here it is :) BTW click on the thumbs to see the whole photos!

The idea was to leave TB at school and make it to South Kensington to meet them up at 11am. Of course we were fashionably late but it was an immense pleasure to meet the 2 ladies. It is awesome to meet someone what has been through kinda the same things I’ve been as a child. Luschka is a military child and has been all over the place more times than she can count… I know that feeling being a Missionair’s kiddo between my 6 and 14 years of age. Even after they settled down (ish) it was difficult to create ruts… and it still is for me today, but we work on it. :)

This was also Mr.A’s 1st Tube trip, and while me and @glowstars were so very excited for that he really couldn’t care less. LOL!

The adventure continued as we decided that after having coffee we should go to Harods and get more coffee… this time for our fancy Nespresso machine. Poor Vic wasn’t quite impressed for not being able to go in the Chocolate Cafe (she’s giving it up for Lent… :) ) I’ve also learned a very important lesson today: Always tip the dude that stands in the toilets handing you towels to dry your hand. If you don’t the lifts will electrocute you one the way out… This is no joke… It happened to me… and it wasn’t a mild shock… So I could only assume it was vengeance! :)

Because we got there fashionably late we also had to leave fashionably late so we were a bit late to pick TB up from school… woops… good job I am really easy to make friends… hehehe… The mum of one of TB’s friends picked him up and we met up with them at the park later. It was freezing!!! But they didn’t seem to notice playing like there are no problems in this world…  hehehe Bless them :)

Didn’t get anything that NEEDED to be sorted done today, but it was a great day away from it all… We’re  reviewing life at the moment and taking big decisions, so I suppose we REALLY need this day out…

Fish and Chips closed our day with Golden Key… :)

wow… 2:40am… better try and get some shut-eye… Tomorrow is back to business as usual… WITHOUT letting the wife sidetrack me with other stuff… ;) (yup… all here fault hehehehe)

zya!!
