Fathers Day

Mark and his girls.

Very lazy morning and then I had to spring to life urgently, run round Sainsburys, come home, bang a load of pots and pans around and make lunch for Dad, Mum, Tanya, in laws and Marks granny. I made Empire Roast Chicken and the spicy potatoes, gorgeously tasty gravy and veg, it's a Jamie recipe and comes highly recommended and very easy. About 15 minutes before it was done Talia popped round so I remained distracted for the hour she was here and the mums got tipsy on Pousse Rapiere and Prosecco.

Lovely afternoon chatting, India and Heidi both enjoyed their cousins company. I went to the gym in the evening, did some errands and then met Kate for a drink nearby. Kate's life has changed unrecognisably in the last 7 months and she is being so strong without even realising it, I am very proud of my friend.
