I'm just finishing my second coffee of the morning then going to get sorted to take the girls to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park Creepy Carnival.

Will be wrapping up warm, it's bloomin' cold out there & I only went out with the recycling!

What about you lot?

DH has taken the kids swimming so I can have the morning off after taking them away for the past few days on my own as he was working.

Am listening to the latest Undisclosed podcast and pottering about unpacking and drinking tea.

No idea about the afternoon but they may all be too worn out to go out again Wink

CakeNinja · 27/10/2018 11:44

Shopping with the dc for winter clothes, I’d like some new boots.
All heading out this evening to the funfair and fireworks with our neighbours via the fish and chip shop, then will come back to ours for a drink.

Was meant to be going to Whitby goth festival but the rain and snow this morning and the lack of heating in our caravan ( leaky radiator) means we will most likely just go home 😡

gingajewel · 27/10/2018 11:54

I have just been pumpkin shopping and so we are going to carve them in a bit! Dd1 has a Halloween party later and dd2 is just getting over chicken pox. I am then meeting a friend and we are going to see Enrique Iglesias tonight!

fedup2017 · 27/10/2018 11:55

We are visiting my brother. We had planned a day out but it's really cold so we're going for a Harry potter marathon instead.
I went for a parkrun first thing so can feel virtuous whilst sat eating cake and cuddling my gorgeous 4 week old niece. Happy days!

MoonlightMedicine · 27/10/2018 11:57

On ‘holiday’ in Tenerife. Up all night with 4 yo DD being sick, so now sat in the apartment with her while DH and DS do a waterpark. Oh, and the police just broke into the apt. downstairs and found the resident inside had passed away. Do I win?!

Pinkyponkcustard · 27/10/2018 13:35

Oh god moonlight that sounds rubbish! Hope the holiday improves.

Slimming world (5 pound off!) little bit of shopping for some things we’ve run out of and an engagement card for my cousin.

Play date, decorating for Halloween and washing this affy.

Strictly, KFC “fakeaway” and a little glass of red tonight.

HelloCanYouHearMe · 27/10/2018 13:59

DS haircut & a trip to the park this morning. McDonalds lunch and home. Carved a pumpkin and lit a fire. Now snuggling up to watch Cars 3 whilst DP goes to watch the football

Dowser · 27/10/2018 14:12

Wow moonlight, which apartments are those
How hot is it?
We came home a week today

Tigerbear · 27/10/2018 14:13

I went clubbing last night and slightly worse for wear, so I’m not out of bed yet. Am eating crisps and MNing Smile
Poor DP had to go to work, but when he’s back he’ll be bringing comfort food - have requested chicken Kiev, mash and peas - and watching a movie.

CoffeebyIV · 27/10/2018 14:18

My hairdresser came round this morning and made me feel so much better. Snuggled on the sofa now watching the Simpsons while DH cooks up a big brunch then bath and getting ready to go out as DH surprised me with gig tickets for tonight.

lynmilne65 · 27/10/2018 14:32

Can you have a DP and a BF ? Oxymoron!!

lljkk · 27/10/2018 15:19

Been superbusy doing little jobs all day. I swam 1.8km by 8:20am, to give a flavour. Errands in town, clothing repairs, Ebay listings, sent kid to swimming, vacuuming...

cricketmum84 · 27/10/2018 15:30

Packing for my HOLIDAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!

First time we have been abroad as a family since 2013. Mega mega excited!!

MrsJonesAndMe · 27/10/2018 15:37

Congratulations WhoamI that's a gorgeous little bundle!

We were out late last night for fireworks, so today has been a bit of a lie in, Tesco, cleaning and pumpkin carving. DC has mostly just had screen time! Blush

Tomorrow might be a bit more energetic, but with the clocks changing and the rest of the cleaning and a roast to cook...maybe not!

Justabadwife · 27/10/2018 15:42

Today we nipped into town, and I got some bullet journal paper.
Went to Morrisons and got lunch stuff for the week.
Went to Sainsbury's because I'm a stroppy pants that wanted carbonara sauce and only Sainsburys would do.
Walked the dog
Now planning my bullet journal (folder) needing to do housework, but watching old top gears.
Tomorrow will be even less productive 😏

holycityzoo · 27/10/2018 15:47

I've spent this morning cleaning.
We've got some friends coming over in an hour for a takeaway and wine. We've decorated the house in Halloween bits for the kids, set up a few games, loaded and hung a witch piñata and prepared the bits for a chocolate fountain.
I'm just enjoying the peace and quiet before the madness starts!

dontknowwhattodo80 · 27/10/2018 15:49

Apart from doing a couple of loads of washing, I'm relaxing as I've come down with a horrible cold!

tranquilitybasehotel · 27/10/2018 15:53

Started the morning by doing a few tax returns whilst still in bed which makes them slightly more bearable than in the office (yup already bogged down with them and it's not even November!), then took my car for 2 new back tyres. Quickly nipped to the new retail park for m&s food goodies and now back home snuggling on the sofa with BF and watching suits. Tonight we are off to the new Gino d'campo restaurant that opened at the retail park last night so should probably jump in the shower soon!!

Crunchymum · 27/10/2018 15:55

Me and the baby having a lazy day. DP been working away all week so he's taken the older 2 to the NHM.

Take away, film and wine later. Perfect.

youarenotkiddingme · 27/10/2018 15:56

Not a lot 😂😂

Ds swim training at 7am was cancelled as they are all at a meet tomorrow from 8-6.

So I've been doing some washing (usually do beds on Sunday) and will iron etc. Cooked a nice lunch of jackets and salad stuff and will do ds a high protein dinner and make pack up for tomorrow later.

Other than that chilling with TV, WiFi (looked up Xmas stuff online!) and my blanket as it's bloody cold!

Nononononono33 · 27/10/2018 16:00

Have been to get my hair cut and do a few errands and DH has been out cycling. Just caught the bus to town and have walked up to the very nice pub about half a mile out of town for a glass of wine before walking back and meeting friends for dinner at the new barbecue place that’s opened. Mmm, chicken waffle burger and salted caramel cheesecake may well be my dinner!

lucysmam · 27/10/2018 18:59

Sounds like some nice, relaxing, days going on!

Happy birthday Holliday, I hope you enjoyed doing nothing Cake

whoami your baby is beautiful, enjoy those newborn snuggles Thanks

We got home an hour or so ago; kids are knackered, it was absolutely bloody freeeeezing but we had a brilliant day & looking forward to their next event now. May have to time leaving better next time though; we ended up on the bus into town with a load of folks who had been to the races & it reeked of booze when they got on

@BifsWif we have annual passes & it never gets boring out there.
