Actions speak louder than words.....
I managed to keep a secret from my wife this week! It was her birthday on Wednesday and unfortunately i had to work all day but we did go out in the evening with the inlaws to the "Running Horse" near Bewdley, very nice. She thought that was the end of the birthday celebrations. But all week I had been plotting a small (exclusive!) dinner party.

Im sure my wife thought i was up to no good, i had to get the phonenumbers of a couple of people off the address book on the phone, then contact them and find a day we could all meet. My wifes best friend Jon had to come from Southampton and was key to the celebrations as we dont see him very often. But with all the furtive text messages, phonecalls and sneaking around im sure my wife must have thought i was having an affair!!

Jon had initially got stuck in trafic, called me to tell me, i had to run to the bathroom to take the call! Eventually all turned out well, he arrived on time while my wife was in the shower. When she eventually came downstairs...40 minutes later (!) she got the shock of her life to see him sat in our lounge! Then grandma turned up to look after our daughter.

We went into town, at this point my wife thought it was just the three of us eating out, when we got to "Ask" in worcester she got another surprise to see more friends there to greet her.

For the record the food was very nice...

Have a good Easter,
James
