Its been some weekend. The football team I coach (with Dan playing left back this week) won another semi-final and play the final on the 6th April, the day after Dan's 21st. And yesterday was an Easter trip to London for a family celebration because it also coincides with Dan's birthday, and he got the chance to see his Brown Grandma, Granddad, aunties, uncles and cousins. In fact the only person missing was Abbi, and then wouldn't you know - having taken in the Alexander Calder exhibition at the Tate Modern before lunch we bumped into her (pictured above). Serendipity plays a huge part in our lives and there she was, the tennis player, still in Oklahoma but there in spirit and soon to be back with us (she graduates in May - yay). Going up to London by train is always a treat and on the way we came across this sign. Any idea what its about? Answers on a post card please. We thought it might be describing us - we were indeed 'Off Up' to the smoke but its not the kind of sign you expect to see in a station. I recommend the Calder exhibition and of course there is a load to see at the Tate Modern already. It was a fine trip and even the two problem moments caused little stress. Having come off the train at Blackfriars and walked over the Millennium Bridge we got caught in a hail storm right on the cusp, going back was just as bad an option as going forward. Serendipity at play again, on the way back from the Tate we were caught in the same place; ah well, both times we ran forward and not back - moving forward into spring, leaving winter behind, happy Easter - we love listening to this in the car
