Onto more things happened in May:

2: We got 4 gerbils. (All females)
3: It was the 11th Anniversary of my mum passing away :(
4: We went to Kidderminster for my hubby's Pre-op for his eye operation. His late dad's house has had a upgrade!
5: We had a B3 moment.
6:
Getting ready to celebrate the 80th Anniversary of D-Day next month.
7: There were some visits from classic cars in Redditch.
8: We had to cancel our holiday to Edinburgh due to an important Hospital appointment for hubby.
So our kids went instead. Hopefully we can go to Edinburgh in August (fingers crossed)
