Mamas and Papas

We visited M&P in Staines on Saturday. It was odd to be there on a non-work day. I wanted to show Ames the Two Rivers retail park, and because we were in that neck of the woods anyway, it was a good opportunity.

When she last visited Staines the Blue Anchor was still a rock pub(that makes it quite a long time ago!). It was fairly late when we got to M&P and the sales staff were looking a little frazzled. It must be due to the Christmas rush. It must be a ‘mare working in a shop at this time of year.

We ended up buying a lovely moses basket and a changing station-cum-chest of drawers. The elephant with the crinkly ears also somehow found it’s way into my basket(no idea how ;-)). So that’s another couple of items to tick off the list. There cannot be much more left to buy now! On Thursday our cot will be arriving along with several other bits and pieces.

This morning I awoke to much pain in my joints and muscles. Yesterday evening was spent mooching about in the loft trying to clear some space. We need said space because we are in the process of clearing the spare room(‘his’ room) so all the gubbins has to go into the loft. It is impossible to stand up straight in there so I spent a long time heaving heavy boxes about while in an ape-like semi-crouch. 😐
