That lovely sister of mine, Erika, has gone and done it again! She only went and nominated me for another award! This time, the Dragon’s loyalty award.
I thank you Erika from the bottom of my heart for your thoughts. I wish I could participate properly, but I am so snowed under as you know, so I wanted to reblog the post as a way of saying thank you!
If you haven’t already peeps, check out Erika’s blog, where you will find inspiration, friendship, motivation and love! 🙂

Old Faces…

Here’s where the old pics come into play!

Tonight my old school class are having a reunion! I am going to be travelling to Birmingham to my parents, with Lil Princess in tow, to hopefully see many old faces from my school years! We have all changed, married, grown up, become mums or career women, or both, and our main reason for meeting this year? We have all finally turned 40! I thing I was the last one to hit the milestone, and one of the others thought it would be a great time to meet up again!

I’m not sure how many of us are going to be there, out of 50 girls, spread amongst 2 classes, but I am so excited! Some, I haven’t seen for 24 years, some 21, some a little less than that, but I think I can safely say I haven’t met any of my class mates for at least 13 years! The power of social media means we have all been parts of each others lives in one way or another. There probably won’t be huge surprises as to who is who, hopefully we will all remember each others names! (I was always known as Ratty, to my friends, nothing to do with personality, but shortened from my full name Ratinder, once we had watched Wind In The Willows for the first time in school together!)

I haven’t been to a reunion before, and living in Kent after marriage, a good 3 hours away it was never likely that I would bump into people! So here goes to a fabulous night of reminiscing!

I shall make sure I post all about it soon!
