Another fabulous weekend

What a super-cool weekend! Unfortunately it's over. Our UK friends Jayne, Darren & Lucie are on their way to Sydney and it's Sunday night which means it's time to iron shirts, polish shoes and decide what to eat this week. (Not that eating has been an issue this weekend. Frankly, I've eaten for the nation and with Fleur and Dave's wedding less than two weeks away, and me wearing satin for the occasion (bridesmaid duty) I could be in trouble! Nothing is so unforgiving as satin.)

This morning we went off to the Bus Depot markets in Kingston and I walked away with free range eggs, spelt bread, finger-puppets for the nephews in England and a plant I can't remember the name of. There's plenty of new stuff there since we last went (probably over a year ago) and quite a nice vibe with live music on the top level. It was busy and lots of fun, but you can feel that winter really is here now so rug up if you're heading down there. 

Anyway, it has been a wonderful weekend full of good food, company and conversation. Inspired and well-fed, I've finally tried using the Flickr mosaic tool for something different. Little Lucie has been the star of the show, and what a great baby she is. Ladybug has been very nice about it all. And now it's back to reality...
