I am sitting in car, catching up on MN and answering a couple of emails whilst waiting for DC having music lesson.
Thankful for a bit of a breeze today!

Been to an intervals session with my running group, had a shower, shoved a whole pizza down my face, sat in the car so dd2 could drive her boyfriend home (she’s a learner) and now watching goggle box.

Glaring at my phone. - I thought only I did this Grin thanks for making me feel less mental!

Doesn't work though. And they've not read my last two messages anyway! Probably wake up to a very early reply as I did this morning.

Me and @EineReiseDurchDieZeit are invested now 😁

No! Hopefully in the morning.

Now just finished playing Declaration Whist and Alias with my family, lots of fun.

I love all the games you play! Does your mum live with you?
We need to play more games

She and my dad were visiting on holiday, last time they were both here was 4 years ago so have to make the most of the time. We spent a week with more family and there was a lot of playing of uno, Alias, and love letter - the kids played for hours every day.

I really like Alias though, I use it as a warm up activity in my English class at work. So much fun!

ChippySauce · 05/07/2025 10:35

That's so cool @Natsku
My sister and family lives abroad but comes to the UK every summer and during those 2 weeks, we get all the games out. We love it! Looking forward to it already 😁

Brilliant, sounds like fun! I'm taking the kids over to the UK next summer for 4 weeks hopefully so we'll play so much games with family and visit everyone we can.

ChippySauce · 05/07/2025 11:33

The best kind of summers is spent overseas with family! ❤️

Do you play Words with Friends online with your mum?
That's our scrabble fix when we're in different countries.

Almost all my childhood holidays were holidays visiting family, definitely the best kind of holiday - I'd never enjoy a sit by the pool all day kind of holiday, would get bored out of my mind.

No I don't, I should start playing with her, that'd be fun.

Hey @Missj25 👋
Not too late at all, we're all doing something, somewhere on MN!
Your day sounds nice. Hope you find some goodies at the market.
I love local markets for a mooch so am jealous!
I've already been out to the shops with DC3 whilst the rest of the family were doing the housework, and now we're having a spot of lunch.
DH will take DCs out to a birthday party later so I will have the nice, clean tidy house to myself for a few hours 👌

Enjoy your date and your treats this evening.

I'm at a summer event for my last day of holiday. I've been throwing chains at holes in a board and horseshoes at a post to see if I get a trophy. I will not be getting a trophy Grin
And entered the raffle to hopefully win something.
