Freedom!!!!
Josie and myself abandoned the plan to visit Sydney with Stef, Danielle and the little kids. Instead we disappeared off to the train station after the school run and jumped on a train for Sydney on our own!!! What a fabulous day. The best bits were having a conversation without being interrupted! Two hours on a train in each direction and I don't think we paused for breath! Another bonus was having coffee and cakes without having to share them with lots of grabbing little fingers! We half hoped that we might come home to a quiet, tidy house with all the kids sleeping fast. Instead we were "welcomed" by a houseful of excited kids who were nowhere near being ready to tuck up in bed....Never mind, we can but dream!
