Get The Kettle On

96.Visit 3 friends in new houses..COMPLETED

Here is another item I am considering as done. The first was Joanna In Edinburgh which I have already listed. The second more recently ( but still a few months back) was Barbie and Peter (new friends/ first visit to their home) and last but not least..the Mister's sister's new home in Motherwell. We visited Karen and her family last month..a couple of weeks after they had moved in.

I know it looks like I have abandoned this blog but believe it or not I am still working away at s few items on the list. Thankfully I have a completed one to report...I got me some jeans! I bought 2 pairs of Fenchurch (yes that's a brand name for those not so hip!) jeans..and the best bit is they fit me. Okay so maybe they are an inch too long and I need a belt but hey I can live with that!
