We had a wonderful time too, in fact Ollie is asking on average 3 times a day if we can go back to the bonkers pink lady - now not 100% sure if he means you are bonkers about pink or just bonkers ;o)

He has kept his goodbye letter in his special things box and looks at it all the time!

And the piccies of your weekend look ace! Am loving the one with Carol - so fab!
