Excitement but not as we know it!

We had a very eventful weekend-culminating in a sunday during which I spent most of the afternoon with my finger plugging a leaking pipe! M had done a brilliant job installing the new towel radiator and was nailing the floor boards back when the excitement started. A nail and the pipe came a bit too close for comfort and we had a nice fountain! I plugged the whole while M went to wickes to get the things he needed to repair the situation. To make a long story short after about 3 hours the water stopped flowing and I was able to move my thumb. I can completely sympathise with the little dutch boy who plugged the hole in the dyke.

The other excitement of the weekend was putting a deposit down on a new house. If all goes well we will be in by the beginning of may which doesn't leave us much time to get this place ship shape to let out. Our new house is in a small town outside leicester called Syston and it will mean M only has about a 15 minute commute into work. Will post a photo of the house later. It is a 3 storey town house with lots of room. We will all be sad to leave Pboro but will be close enough to be able to come back for mudpud, swimming etc. Hopefully our friends will make the trip over to see us as well. Must investigate home ed groups in leicester as well, I 'm sure they can't be possibly be as good as mudpud.

Sam is going to get a good education in diy, legal processes, banking and frustration over the next two months!! Not sure they feature in the national curriculum. We must stick as close as possible to our normal day to day activities to maintain some type of continutiy for sam and to maintain my sanity.
