Dancing Queen!

I found a karoake machine at the car boot sale today and it's a big hit. The living room has become an Abba-zone. Even my quiet 8 year old has had a go - albeit just the same song. Again and again and again! Caitlin sang 'Hop little Bunnies' to 'Mama Mia' and then threw the mike down and pretended to sleep on the floor and wondered why her singing stopped!

Other good finds were loads of old 1940s books of second world war magazines - will take months to even flick through them all! The pages are also really yellowed but there are thousands of pictures and they look good. We also got Caitlin a lovely crying dollie from the 1980s - with hard vinyl rather than a soft body, and a like new baby chou chou that says all sorts of things. She's delighted and keeps redressing them. Henry has a small drum kit thingy as he is learning the drums at school and I found lots of new body shop gift boxes for me.
All in all it was a very good day and it was nice that the sun was out too. It makes all the difference

But now I need to go and spend a few hours in the storage unit (aka Alkatraz-New-Forest) then come home and wash pushchairs, pack and sort out what I need to send tomorrow. THEN I have some fake Lidls Baileys that I picked up today which will probably mean I skip the order sorting step....
