Re: Cambridgeshire
It was weird at first not having the boys around but we have quickly got used to it.
Just us and the dogs and the parrot now it is wonderful.
They are both coming home for a few days soon so that will be hectic, do miss having all their friends in and out. Eldest Son makes up for that every year for the last 3 years he has come home with 3 of his friends from High School in UK and they stay a
week that is murder.

Re: Cambridgeshire
You mean when they stay in their rooms and only come out to argue with you or annoy you, when they leave a mess in the kitchen when they have filled their darling little faces.
Yes know what you mean been there

Re: Cambridgeshire
The oldest two are my step kids. The boy, poor thing, is just getting interested in girls but is painfully shy, it's heartbreaking. His sister (12 going on 16) is an absolute nightmare....I only wished she would stay in her room.

Re: Cambridgeshire
You would have been in the same year as my sister then, and if you were in Histon you were very close, I lived near Arbury Primary school. The cycling club I was a member of had time trials starting in Histon every Thursday night (well, actually it was on the A45, but we warmed up around Histon).

Re: Cambridgeshire
Yes opposite Watches of Switzerland, there used to be a cinema and a pub next door to it the pub was downstairs. It is going to be on my mind now till I remember the name of it.
Yes know the Gardenia thinks thats what it was called.
