Two weeks later and I appear to have totally ...Eek! Two weeks later and I appear to have totally failed to thank you all for lovely comments. I am so sorry!<br /><br />jfb - imagination, snow, wardrobes, it's all of them and more isn't it? Thank you!<br /><br />Greysqrl - thank you!<br /><br />Mirka - it was great wasn't it?! (although sadly B works from home, so didn't get the day off!)<br /><br />Deer Baby - That's exactly what I'm hoping for!<br /><br />Nova - you hated reading them as an adult? eek! I hope I don't feel like that, will be such a disappointment.<br /><br />BlogupNorth - I know! Am slightly freaking out about the Scottish winters to come!<br /><br />DawnieBrown - don't worry, it was a flat roof!<br /><br />Spudballoo - I suspect, if I hadn't got the picture to prove it, I'd have forgotten it too (we had three under 2 here at the time and I can't remember much about that six month period at all!)<br /><br />Pants with names - me too!<br /><br />Christine - Lucky her! I can't wait to read them to my three.<br /><br />Livi - isn't it just?!<br /><br />Tiddlyompompom - it's wardrobes too, and pushing through coats - we've got a long thin downstairs loo here, and B suggested we should use it as a hanging place for coats too, but you'd have had to push through them to get to the loo (it's that thin) and I thought it would be a disappointment every time you came out and there was just a toilet, and no magical world...)<br /><br />Kerry - It was fab wasn't it? A&S were about eight weeks old, so we didn't go very far, but it was still a magical day (although that's when you realise the downside of having a husband who works from home!)<br /><br />Jen - thank you!<br /><br />Vic - Me too - although I still find the Lucy they had irritating....<br /><br />Bubbleboo - thank you!<br /><br />Cathy - it's amazing isn't it? Even my garden looked good!<br /><br />Northside Mum - I know! I've got them all on the shelf waiting and ready...<br /><br />Urbanvox - we had LOADS! (am slightly concerned now what it'll be like when the same thing happens and I'm living in Scotland...!)<br /><br />Victoria - it so was, wasn't it?!<br /><br />Rosie Scribble - thank you! Glad it's not just me that thinks so!<br /><br />Mrsshilts - me too!Harriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975259590293860488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432382804917497650.post-88348161810519835722010-07-25T14:02:03.169+01:002010-07-25T14:02:03.169+01:00Love the picture, I love snow!Love the picture, I love snow!Emma Shilton https://www.blogger.com/profile/02399033367755991581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432382804917497650.post-79936964670717895722010-07-22T14:38:41.720+01:002010-07-22T14:38:41.720+01:00Oh, brilliant shot.
