Training seems a little on the back burner at the moment and it has nothing to do with "reading too much", not quite sure what is up with me but I just can't seen to get the enthusiasm to train! However, I do not stop with one thing or another - Craig has promised to be my personal trainer and will get me running... apparently.... don't honestly think that is going to happen but hey, may be fun trying! If he can get me up and down the two flights of stairs 40 times, you never know!
We did have a little bit of excitement here today with the Police... but if you want to know about it you will have to call!!! It was funny seeing the kids really nervous even though they hadn't done anything wrong... Savannah said to one of them..."I used to want to become a Ollice Possifer!", Luke couldn't stop giggling even though it was a serious matter and Craig kept trying to entertain the P.C. by chatting about the football which Mr PC was clearly not interested in.... I, on the other hand thought one of them was rather good looking and I think I probably licked my lips & twirled my hair a little too obviously, between the lot of us I am surprised we didn't get taken in for questioning.

The most exercise I did today was running up and down the stairs in my heels at Camelot selling raffle tickets for "The Holiday of a Lifetime" - £10.00 a ticket for accommodation for up to 6 people (depending on destination) more or less anywhere in the world... it is an totally fantastic prize worth in the region of £3,000.00 with all proceeds from the raffle going directly to Marie Curie. Let me know if you want a ticket and if you win you can take me with you!

Adults & Children welcome
As these events are proving to be very popular, it will be on a first come first served basis but there will be more over the next few months if you miss out!
During this session, I will be teaching the children how to use Angelica with stamps and designing their own cards, and how to draw cartoon characters - if we have enough time I will teach them the beginnings of how to do Calligraphy.
Please contact me if you would like to book a space and you can pay on my just giving website http://www.justgiving.com/beth-routt
