Who needs sleep anyway?

Eden's plane was delayed by two hours! Apparently there were problems at Gatwick due to storms and heavy rain.
She was due to leave Italy at 10-45pm but eventually took off at 12-45pm and arrived in England at 1-30am our time.
On the plus side they had Paolo Nutini in the middle of their group sat on the plane. (Male singer! For those who have never heard of him!)


We eventually picked her up just after 5am, we had about four hours sleep and therefore spent most of the rest of Tuesday napping here and there between working. We were early to bed last night and thankfully I slept for a full eight hours.
Today has been spent working, dropping Eden off to a friends and picking her up again and shopping.
Clark is texting me every night and appears to be having a great time.
I've started knitting a jumper for my friend with the large family who has a three year old with a birthday early in August.
She is, by the way, pregnant with number twelve, due in March.
Just the right time of year for little knitted cardis methinks!

  1. Thank you for mentioning how close December 25th is on my blog, Gill says you should be banned!
    It's good to hear Clark is having a good time at camp and Eden safely home. Knitting for your friend could keep you very busy I think.

  2. Goodness me 12 children that will definitely keep your needles busy for some time to come..., Glad Clark is having a good time and that Eden enjoyed her trip. I was so proud of the fact that I knew who Paolo Nutini is not such an old bat as I thought yeah....

    1. Haha. I knew who he was but I doubt that I would have recognized him in real life!

  3. Glad to hear that Eden returned home safely, I hope her trip turned out well in the end, and glad to hear that Clark's having a good time. Twelve children, what a busy household that must be, I'm surprised your needles are used for anything else, just as you finish one birthday present, there must be another on the horizon.

    1. They do indeed keep my knitting needles busy but it's an absolute pleasure and not a chore. Their Mum is so thoughtful when they come round or we go to see them as she usually puts them in the things I've knitted so that I can see them wearing them.
