St George was busy today

Ran slowly round the 5k parkrun course this morning with Ellie after a few weeks absence due to overdoing it last time and getting injured.
Got overtaken by a Lycra clad St George, although there was no sign of a dragon, or his horse.
Walked round to The Trip to Jerusalem pub this afternoon and came across him again, this time in a much more generous outfit. And, as I overheard someone say 'sitting on his bobbo'.

Congratulations Gillian!

Well done Gillian - you are the winner of the competition to guess where we will be moving next! In fact you were the only entrant and you must have spent ages  thinking of an original answer, but your home town is as good a guess as any other.
Had a little bit of a setback today as we were planning on moving to our house behind Broadmarsh Centre if our sale goes through quickly, but the tenant is not now moving out.
Slightly concerned we could be homeless, but no need to panic yet.
Must just mention the endless rain this week as it's doing wonders for the garden.
See you for that drink soon Gillian.

Paperwork panic

Tax return arrived in the post last Friday and for the first time ever I opened the envelope before about the middle of August.
In fact, I am pleased to announce the following - tax return - tick.
That's tick as in completed, not as in tock.
This could also be the most boring blog ever, but then we move on to the missing paperwork that's needed for the house sale by our solicitor.
I was shocked to find it wasn't in the file where it was supposed to be so I had a complete panic as it is almost irreplaceable. Was just gearing up to rip the house apart in a frantic search when I found it, sitting quietly on a shelf in the spare bedroom, just minding it's own business.
No more admin related posts in future - I promise.

Declan's Christening

Little Declan had his christening today at St Stephens Church in Sneinton.
There was some confusion as apparently it is Catholic one week and Church of England the next.
No one seemed really sure which week it was and the priest/vicar said 'Catholic' during the service, but Hayley told me 'Church of England.'
We had been warned if it was Catholic it could be a really long service, but it was actually a speedy 15 minutes.
Hayley looked lovely and summery in a pale blue frock even though it was a freezing day, and Declan looked dapper in a matching waistcoat and tie.
Nice do afterwards in the pub and Jay's family made us really welcome.

FW: Wot no thunderstorm?

---

About an hour ago there was a huge thunder crash and as my mum would say 'it's looking black over Bills mothers'.
To be really accurate, it was looking black over our friend Peters house, and we never knew who Bill was anyway, never mind his mum.
Ran around getting all the washing in, but no rain.
Oh well, that's April for you.

Virtual house hunting

Hypothetically, if our flat sale goes through, then where should we move to next?
Can't remember what life was like without rightmove, googlemaps and streetview.
How about the top floor flat of a castle in Oxford, or what about a large cupboard in central London?
Want to get to Bath eventually, but what about one last detour on the way there.
Answers on a postcard, or maybe as a Comment.
