Day 352 - Saturday 15th April 2006
Today was "Easter Egg Hunt Day at Maries".
kp was up a couple of times in the night, but otherwise had a good night's sleep. On the way to Marie's, we popped in to a bathroom showroom in Middlesbrough for a good mooch round at various bathroom setups.
Once at Marie's, we tucked into the lovely buffet lunch Marie had laid on, before the Easter Egg Hunt was on. Four kids (Abbie(8), Ethan(7), Louisa(2) and David(12)). I was looking forward to SHARING some chocolate with the kids. Unfortunately, David(11) gets hyperactive on chocolate so there was no easter eggs to hunt, only toys. Well, I was polite and didn't spit my dummy out at the fact there was no chocolate.
Here is the family picture........
The kids enjoyed finding the toys. Marie could see I was a bit miffed there was no chocolate and as if by magic, a galaxy bar appeared in front of me :-)
The toys Marie had got provided us with a cracking afternoon's entertainment and the kids enjoyed it too. She had got them these big blowup England-themed football hammers that you blow up. There were 4 of them. I was knackered after blowing 2 of them up (must cut down on the fags).
The kids had a whale of a time with the hammers. But soon the adults were being battered by the kids. That's when it all changed. The adults took over and took their revenge.
Adele was the first to come a cropper from the kids, but she took no prisoners and was beating the merry hell out of any kid who came close, including her own daughter.
I overheard someone threatening to call Social Services, but it was an idle threat.
Michelle helped Abbie beat the boys....
Abbie was tired, so Michelle and Adele took the boys on......
Michelle fought hard...
I was trying to avoid being hit, but hiding behind Karen only wins a bit of time. Ethan came for me, but I grabbed the hammer and showed him how strong 25 year olds can be....
Louisa was unimpressed.....
It was a really good afternoon. kp was flagging about halfway through, so we took Ethan and Chris home, before driving back to Durham.
Lovely Day !
