Hey, IB, I agree with JJ, you are getting to be a DB master!! I also read your post to 12_51, and it was a really good one.

Thank you.

I am glad that your H loved your surprise for him. You know, you really have come a long way from how you were a few months ago. It's amazing to us, so you can imagine how your H feels about it, seeing it every day.
Yes I think my H does find it pretty amazing. He looks at me sometimes with a big grin on his face and when I ask him what he says nothing he is just looking. I think he must be thinking really gushy things about me or something! He really did love his surprise. He liked all the candles in the garden best - it did look really pretty.

Now it so happens I can properly answer your question "what is a banking holiday?" I used to work in a bank until I had S. All public holidays in the UK are called Bank Holiday nowadays but it actually came from when Banks used to do everything in ledgers by hand. Once every so often - roughly every quarter - they had to close to the public to balance all the ledgers and because the Banks were closed most other business closed too. That is where the term comes from but like I say any public holiday is now called a Bank Holiday.

Do you say Happy Bank Holiday? just joking!!
\:D That would be funny - no we don't!!

H and I (and S) have had to have our Easter weekend on Tuesday and Wednesday because H was working. We have been out to a really big park one day and shopping and a garden centre the next. It was really nice - we've had to make the most of it because H has got extra shifts next week and is working all of it with just sleep breaks so we won't really see each other.
