Stacey - she has been married to Lee for almost a year (since June 2014) they live in Elland with a daft Boxer called Rolo. Stacey will be 30 in Jan next year and we are all off to Centre Parks to celebrate.
The wedding was the most fabulous day! I don't think i have ever smiled and laughed as much, I was so proud of her. So John and I now have a son-in-law! and we couldn't wish for a better one. It took 2 years to plan the wedding then 8 weeks before the day we had to change the venue from the Cassa (which was a building site) to the Ceder Court who accommodated us really well … It was a very drizzly day but nothing spoiled it at all.
Stephen is still living with Kaylie but not in a flat they now have a house in Lime Street in Elland and live with Woody. Kaylie is 36 weeks pregnant with my first grandchild. He's a little boy and will be named Seth John Andrew Gibson.
Mark is still in Tidworth (dahn saath) although he may have been somewhere else last time I wrote. He spent 7 months in Afghanistan in 2013/14 which was a horrible time but he came through it ok. At the moment he is home but will be going back today (May Day Bank Holiday). Mark's partner Heidi will be graduating in July from Portsmouth Uni as a radiographer. John and I will be attending the graduation. Heidi has a job at t hospital in Kent (which I'm sure I'm supposed to know the name of but can't remember)
John and I started cycling about 5 weeks ago and its going well. We cycle between 8 and 12 miles 3 or 4 times a week. We have become fitness guru's (oh how i laughed typing that).
So - I think the time is right to resurrect the blog, especially since our little grand baby is imminent (not as imminent as Woody though because we are dog sitting today whilst Kaylie and Stephen go to see Kaylies mum in Hornsey)
PS…………. we got the chickens, unfortunately the original 6 have all gone to the chicken farm in the sky, mostly due to old age however the Fox on Christmas Day night this year put paid to three of them (we still had four, Bluebell survived for 4 more weeks after the attack bless her). So we have three new ones now, one of them lays blue eggs, the other two are commercial brown. I have to say that now that we are experienced chicken farmers we have decided to stick with 3 till they stop laying, then get another three so we still have eggs. By the time the second set of three get a bit past it the original three will be gone to the great chicken god (are you following this) and we will still have a regular supply of eggs.
Ok thats all the updates…….. bring on the blogging
