we've all got the X Factor!

slept well and even managed a lie in til 7.30am, on my last day before going back to work. Pete had another good night. we're both lively once up, him more than me! busy day ahead for us both.

walk, then coffee at mums, before we set off to meet Petes half brother Albert. want to get Pete used to travelling in my car, and he's very well behaved as we head 1 junction up the M1 to Mrs Kirks. pete and Albert hit it off, the first of many meetings to come.

exhausted, Pete falls asleep as we leave, and is snoring as we head back to Junction 27!

Pete fed, and left to sleep, as i go out for a couple of hours to do shopping, take some pics and pop to mums.

took this picture in Kimberley Cemetery after taking flowers to pops, was messing around taking different pictures, and the sun broke through as i wandered around the older part of the cemetery. have played around with it a bit in my picture editor, but really liked this effect. it was freezing up there, hands frozen taking pics.

home, greet the Pete, and then. for one last day....fire made, and deal or no deal on the tele!

had lovely dinner whilst Pete snoozed, and then after another walk we settle down to the X factor final, writing Christmas cards as we go!

good news that James Arthur wins the X Factor...both finalists had brilliant voices, but really like James, and the song that'll be the single...impossible....
