It has been an interesting and amusing weekend. Firstly, the sad bit. I've been really exhausted lately, trying to keep up with teaching, mentoring, keeping home and doing various things at church and so we decided something had to give. So Friday evening was my last at YP. I hadn't bargained on them presenting me with a big card and giant bouquet and doing a memory lane slideshow though. It was so lovely I shed some tears when I got home.
On Saturday my sil and bil Ann and Jon came over and Ann and I had a decadent afternoon cinema trip to see The Lovely Bones. I have to say that I am always disappointed with film adaptations of books I love, but this one was actually brilliant. I loved all the stuff from the 70's. Tense, scary film though. Ann gave me some light relief because she shares her brother's inability to wait and see what happens. "Does she get away?", "Does he kill her?" It's so funny that they both do that.
Then I discovered a website that tells you which song was number one on the day you were born. Mine was a Cliff Richard song I'd never even heard of but Peter's was interesting : Hey Jude, one of the tunes he most regularly tinkles out on the piano. I was also amused by the number one on the day we got engaged : Kylie & Jason's Especially For You. How appropriate! Try this it's a hoot.

Oh that`s hideous! Mine was Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep. Bleugh! I can only take comfort form the fact that it was Simon and Garfunkel`s Bridge Over Troubled Water which was the number one album. Phew :)
I loved Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep at the time. I had the single. Could be worse, my nrother's was Rose Marie by Slim Whitman!
