- Double checking I had everything I needed for a wedding fair the following day.
- Settling down on the sofa to rest while the others headed off into town.
- Watching back-to-back movies all day. My body really needed rest, so I did exactly that.
- Sipping tea and nibbling leftover Christmas chocolate.
- Resisting the urge to do housework.

- Grabbing tea and toast for breakfast.
- Coaxing the children into their clothes, gathering all our things and jumping in a taxi to Clifton Pavilion at Bristol Zoo.
