Wow! What weather we have today.... Fantastic. Except if you are heavily pregnant it could be argued it is possibly a bit too hot but we get these days so rarely I am not going to complain! We did lots of shopping today and are still undecided about a chest of drawers we REALLY want for our bedroom but can ill afford at the moment...
We went to stay at the Henley on Thames Hotel du Vin last night. It was kind of a birthday surprise for Simon as his birthday is 1 week before baby is due so he is unlikely to have a particularly fun time this year! It was amazing. The setting is fantastic and, as usual, the building totally fantastic ( a converted brewery). We were also upgraded to the best room in the hotel! It was a 2-floor suite with an outside bath (on the balcony overlooking the river), a massive inside bath, a huge walk-in shower, a sofa area and 2 lots of plasma tvs with dvd player! We watched some episodes of 24 which we have been enjoying recently and made sure we relaxed on our balcony with a good book in the sunshine. I feel v relaxed now and it was totally wonderful. Breakfast in the sunshine outside in the courtyard area. Quite spoiled rotten we were. Now we are staying at Simon's parents' lovely place in Sussex to enjoy their fantastic garden for a few days' well earned rest....
