BYE-BYE GEMMA

After months of pain borne with the most extraordinary bravery, Gemma has decided to take a break from her career and try and give her back a chance to heal.  We are going to miss her and her amazing cheerfulness and fortitude.  We all wish her the very, very best but she leaves in the certain knowledge that the door will always be open for her in the future.

DON'T YOU JUST DESPISE HIM

ROB - REVEAL YOURSELF!

I am sure I speak for Mel as well when I say thank you Rob for your kind comments on the blog about our competitive dieting - BUT WHO ARE YOU?

ANNOYING........!!

The really annoying thing about blogging (or at least the way I do it) is that the last post comes first - this is not intended.  Our incidental activities at the hotel we all stayed at for Laura's wedding is certainly not more important than the main event...............so please read the following in reverse order.  Also, the same entry with a picture and a half is simply me confused why the blog arbitrarily edited out Soph and Mel and republishing it with us all in, albeit a little off-centre!

Ruth ...........H-E-L-P!!!

THE MORNING AFTER!

After a long day which included one of our party driving to the Compleat Angler at Henley (when in fact it is at Marlow!) - ME - some bedroom hopping and finally a night's sleep, we all regrouped for a fat girl's breakfast at 9am.

(the charming name of my room!)

However, I am happy to report it wasn't our free range, happy holidaying pork snarler from cold comfort farm that set the kitchen alight.  Nevertheless we all had to evacuate to the car park to watch the fire engine arrive.  A least none of us were caught looking sheepish in our towelling robes.

A fitting end to another great SPA road trip.

THE WEDDING OF THE YEAR - DOESN'T SHE LOOK BEAUTIFUL AND HAPPY

It was lovely to see Laura Holford-Walker walk up the aisle to meet Rick and to walk down as Mr & Mrs Smith.  A wonderful wedding with great hymns, a fantastic reception with wall to wall Pol Roger champagne and glorious flower arrangements.  It may have been a little unseasonal for the longest day but it didn't a matter a jot for the happy couple or all the guests.As I write she will be ploughing across the midnight sky heading for a safari in the Masai Mara - much love and lifelong happiness to you both.
