Me- Loves Disney, Shopping and Pompey

DH- Loves Pompey, weather and the sunshine state

Jordan 16- Not allowed to play football whenever we are off to Florida

Julian 14- Takes everything in his stride

Kieran 12- Never stops talking

Saturday 23 Aug

So the Kids had been under strict Instructions for the last 6 weeks, no Sporting activities ( well they really we're not allowed to breathe;)) and Jordan
had been given the all clear from the hospital- metal work was doing its job
and better late than never the long Journey could begin.

My Dad was staying at our house to look after our cats and have his own mini
break.

So Imagine my face when I caught Dad and Kieran doing this:scared1:

both of them were firmly told off and last minute preperations resumed.

Our drive to Gatwick was uneventful and we checked into the Holiday inn
Hubby stays away every week so we have tons of loyalty points so the rooms are free.

We drove to Brighton for the evening had Harry ramsdens for tea and then
headed back to the Hotel
