We are not staying over this run so we will be bk home in donegal about 1am on sunday morning.I hope the xmass lights are on in dublin.

Welol anotherf day its wed here and 9.30am Wedensday is a good day for me as my son Daniel goes to day care from 11am-3pm, not a long time but while he is there he gets on an exercise bike and has aromatherapy which he loves it relaxes him greatly. Anyway once we drop him off Hubby Joe and I usually head to Derry shopping Derry is in N.Ireland and it is our nearest big shopping area it is 25 miles away. Once weve had a look around the shops and done some sainsburys shopping we usually head back over the border again to Buncrana which is about 18 miles from our house. When there we usually have liunch in the Lake of Shawdows hotel to treat ourselves. The food is really good. Anyway I have my s/h dinning table and chairs in the dinning room now and you know what they look great. So now \I cant wait for Xmas to get everyone round the table. I have to go now as Daniel has to get up and have his bath before he heads to day care will keep you all posted more often . have a nice day to everyone byeeee
