More Snow....
Well today we should have been over in Kidderminster doing a painting party--however as we were getting ready to load the car (we had already decided not to risk the van in the snow) Beth rang us to say it had taken her sister 2 1/2 hours to get to Bewdley which is a few miles from Kidderminster.
So she didnt want us to risk it. We knew it was on the cards after speaking with her yesterday--so the girls are still having a sleepover at the house as they all live locally and we are going to try again on the 28th Dec to do the painting party.
We have had loads of snow again today--and we wouldn't have got back from there if we had chanced it.
We are suposed to be on the market on Wednesday for the last time until March/April but if its still like this we wont be going--its -12 here at the moment!

Lovely Time
We have had a lovely time this weekend, we are staying at the Barons Court Hotel-a beautiful Edwardian arts and crafts building.
Lots and lots of original features here-the whole place has a feeling of tranquility and peacefulness.
Lots of ambient lighting-candles are lit everywhere as soon as it starts to get dark-all of which adds to the atmosphere.
Keith who runs the hotel is just brilliant-nothing is to much trouble for him at all.
Its rare for a hotel to allow you to bring your own drinks, but its encouraged here, and the hotels lounge is the perfect place to relax in the evening and have a drink and watch TV or just chat.
We had a massive full English today and it kept us going until early evening when we went out for dinner-steak with all the trimmings and garlic butter for me and roast beef for Bill- then we couldn't resist the sweet platter-the chocolate brownies were naughty but nice-and it is my birthday and wedding anniversary after all!
Back to the strict diets tomorrow when we get back home. Off to do some retail therapy tomorrow, got some things to pick up from Marks and Spencers that I ordered off the internet and had delivered to the local store here-then home to catch up with everything!
