This weekend has been rather busy - the annual Northampton Balloon Festival was on, (though I only saw balloons taking off on the Sunday evening) and there was the Sywell Air Show which, from our garden, we received pretty goods views of the air displays free of charge (according to their website there were many static displays and the museum was open but this weekend that sort of think didn't interest me!).

As well as this, the garden received some much need maintance, starting with mowing the lawn which hadn't been done for 4 weeks due to the constant bad weather and the over growing plants removed. The Onions and Tomato plants haven't taken so these have also been disposed of and the patio cleaned (but then the bad rain on Sunday night has messed it up!).

In the house, I have replaced the hold backs for the living room curtains as the hooks were too small to keep them open, so hav efitted some fancy ones from B&Q. The old vacuum had lost suctions even after having a new bag and filters cleaned so Saturday PM saw going out to buy a swish new upright vacuum which has made the carpets look like new (it was unbelieveable how much crap was in the waste thingy').

The weekend was topped of with making my own Lemon meringue pie (all home made except the pastry).

Heres a little example why you sould proof read documents and not rely on the spell checker on your computer. Whilst searching the internet I came across this page about Blackpool Tower (http://www.visitblackpool.com/site/events/heritage-open-days-blackpool-tower-p555190) and found the below (which is an exact copy from the page).

"The Blackpool Tower is a Victorian pleasure complex that opened in 1894. The building contains many agricultural gems from Frank Matcham."
