A social life - surely not!

This weekend I managed to be out both Friday and Saturday.  This might seem quite normal for those of you without kids and maybe for those of you who are financially well endowed.   For most mums out there, I think you'll agree, that is quite amazing.  Friday consisted of an overnight stay (shock horror - amazing!) in the Burgh - which is where I work, incidentally - with my good ole bestie AT.  For many years we had managed to drop off each others' radar but we've been making a concerted effort these days to recapture some of our riotous youth.  Much wine was consumed, stories shared and complaints made about £4.10 for a drink...we have a lovely meal though the Italian restaurant we visited confused us greatly by playing Christmas music!  A wee trip to the cinema (that I have to disavow as hubsy doesn't know) to see Harry Potter topped off our day on the Saturday after a hangover-busting Macdonalds.  Greetin' and snotters to be had at the sad end of a long term relationship with the franchise.  Potter, not Macd's. I then went out on Saturday to see.... Harry Potter with darling hubsy.  Drinks in the oh so trendy West End of my beloved home town and a midnight showing.  For how many of you mums out there does that seem like a wicked weekend?  For those singletons and childless couples, I'm sure it seems very tame.  It is a mark of how much life changes when you have kids that a nice weekend like this seems like a luxury, a rarity and a naughty way to spend a weekend.
