Paris update: A big thumbs up to daddy!

I quickly went outside and checked the house number. Yup. Right house. To rub it in, they were all smiling contently. Didn’t miss me a bit. I have to admit to being slightly annoyed: Why didn’t I do this years ago??

I liked the music. Very 90’s corporate movie. Have I told you I was envious? You inspired me to take Saturday off 🙂

Wow, what a lovely video. Love Rodin’s The Kiss. And how nice that you didn’t walk back into chaos.

I just gained 2 stones after watching your video! Thanks for sharing, I’m headed out there next month, can’t wait!

YAY! Your video was lovely – really made me want to hope a jet and go. I wouldn’t even care if the laundry go done in my absence.

Couldn’t they just do the decent thing and fall apart in your absence?
