I'm back in Manchester after a round trip visiting relatives down south. My Grandparents Diamond Wedding celebrations all went to plan, including all the family entertainment after the meal. It was quite amazing that the family managed to provide an hours entertainment for over 50 people, when we all live at other ends of the country and only got together the night before. My 4 year old cousin even declared that he wanted to play his violin in front of everyone - he's been learning for about 8 months now and played a simple piece perfectly! One of the other highlights of the evening was seeing my Dad and uncle dressed in aprons and holding cleaning equipment, whiles singing 'We are Poor Hen-Pecked Husbands' (to the tune, 'The church's One Foundation')!!!
I've managed to relax a bit, having done most of my work before going. The morning after the celebrations I stayed in bed till 11am and caught up on some much needed sleep. The only problem was that when I emerged into the living room at 11, I found it full of all my Gran's cousins and their partners, who all thought it was incredibly funny that I had only just got up! I've just checked my emails and found that my tutor hasn't returned my work yet, so it looks like I'll have to have a break for a little longer! I just hope she doesn't leave it too late before she returns it.
So, have I missed anything exciting here? It seems like something went wrong. What was the problem? Is it all fixed now?
