Highs & Lows

The lows .... no we didn't get out after all & although very disappointed we think we made the right decision as the wind has been very strong all w/e and only dropped last night - just in time for Mark to go back to work! Might have risked it had we been more experienced but common sense prevailed.

The highs...
They did it! We went through to Hull to watch the match in the Barraccuda sports bar - got there nice & early to get a good spot - good job as it was packed. Not the best football but no matter as Windass did the job & some very happy fans

Then on Monday we went back to Hull to see the team being welcomed back - this was the scene outside city hall, not the best of pics as I had forgotten my camera so this was taken on my mobile-well not actually my mobile but the spare on loan from Carphone Warehouse who have since rang me to say mine is repaired & ready for collection so Mark has taken the spare into Hull with him today & will call in to swap them back over.
Then yesterday the rain arrived so lazy day playing golf on the playstation & watching DVDs.
Forecast for this week seems to be an improving one so fingers crossed for this coming w/e so we can finally get out!

Bank holiday forecast !!.......

Typical! I have been looking forward to this weekend as we plan to head off for a couple of days & it will be 1st time we have 'slept out' as it were ie not within the confines of the marina.

So whats the forecast? Wind & rain, hey ho- shall just have to get on with it, tho I've just got the paintwork repaired from the last (1st!) time we were out in the wind but hopefully this time we shall manage better.

We are not setting off until sunday as we are in Hull tomorrow - need to pick up some odds & ends then find a pub with a big screen to watch the Tigers v Bristol City. We have sky on Poppy so could stay at home & watch it but Mark wants to soak up a bit of the atmosphere.
Really hope they do the job & get to Wembly as they have worked so hard this season. Fingers crossed.........
