Back to reality. stuffed to the brim and stone cold sober

It was a very eventful hen weekend. Unfortunately, Gina started feeling ill on the Thursday and had a terrible cold, sore throat and felt sick all the time we were there. She hardly ate anything, and certainly didn't drink much at all..........
Despite feeling terrible, she rallied round and managed to smile all through the weekend!!!!!!!

16 of us were picked up at 7.45 am by Select Limo's and of we headed to the Park Inn, York. It was a great Hotel, very clean and central to the shops, eateries and bars. My sister, Angela had planned the days really well, and included some challenges, pass the parcels, pyjama competitio, spot prizes and a photo challenge. It was so much better than wandering around for 2 days wondering what to do.

Gina is the quieter of the two girls, not wanting to stand out in a crowd 'too much', so we dressed her in a simple sash, veil and tiara. Despite her feeling so poorly, she still looks lovely!


Here's the girls, all dressed up and raring to go. We got back to the Hotel at a reasonable time and had our pyjama party!

Me and the girls at the pyjama party!!!!!

My niece Abi and her friend Lydia were shattered and got their heads down for half an hour on the boat trip. (Light weights)!!!


Here we all are after the boat trip, which I found very relaxing and interesting. We did so much more, shopping, eating at The Slug and Lettuce, gorgeous, for Saturday lunch and Pizza Express for our Saturday Evening meal. Sunday morning breakfast was absolutely MASSIVE!!!!! It kept is all going for the full day!
We arrived back in town at about half six and Paul had the house spick and san, wasing all sorted and a yummy M and S meal deal at the ready. He does spoil me, bless him, and as great as the weekend was, 'there's no place like home.

Looks like a fun weekend. Such a shame that Gina felt so unwell although she did look gorgeous. Both your girls have your lovely smile.
