On opening the curtains in the bedroom this morning, we discovered a sight to compare with an Austrian winter wonderland! With the trees' branches decorated in the most wonderful white icing and the ground covered with the same, it was certainly a picture postcard scene. Gradually though, a sneaky thaw crept across the landscape during the morning, and without us being aware of it the snow was gently erased from the trees.
With the thaw producing more favourable conditions for travelling around, I dared to suggest to my DH that after lunch we took the opportunity to visit the hotel where the wedding reception is to be held, and sort out the problem of 'which room do we need with two four year olds and a fourteen year old?' The receptionist was very patient with us, as we explained that we were more used to being in a touring caravan than a hotel room! She contacted 'Roger', from sales, and he took us up to see the executive room, which consists of a double bed, double sofa bed, and has space for a zed-bed for the older grandson. That sorted and booked, it was another item to cross off the list of 'things to do in preparation for the wedding'!
Is it too early yet to shop for an outfit for the big day? DH seems to think it is. I put it to the readers' votes!
