I’ve been tagged by Nappy Valley Girl to answer some questions. It’s a list and now that my life is once more defined by “To Do” lists this is one I’m going to rattle off. Besides it’s a welcome distraction from the other rather more ominous things on today's list like;

Glad to hear you share my good taste (or is it just that we both fancy Ralph Fiennes?).
Angkor Wat IS amazing. But you could still go there on a future holiday! It may be a bit further from Putney, but it would be worth it.
As for Zuma sushi in the Landmark....when I was there the best meal you could get there was Pizza Hut, so things have obviously moved on a tad!
Angkor Wat great, but I developed a sudden case of vertigo whilst right at the top of the highest temple. Had to be escorted down sweating and shaking. Still time for you to go - but you have been warned!!
Coll? Really? You must have been a PTV at some point...I just remember Coll to be very wet and having to do a lot of digging in a very jolly sort of way. But the beaches looked good if it hadn't been October.
I've been reading about your possible move back to Putney, and thinking about how hard it must be for you. I can't imagine having to change all the plans that you have at that short notice. But, I'm back in Barnes at the moment and it has to be said that the common is looking lovely and I'm really enjoying myself. Good luck with keeping ahead ofthe organisation, hope it is all going ok.
Thanks for tagging me. I was wondering if I was going to get around to a blog post this week - too many other things to think about, but this makes it easy (ish)!
One of my neighbours commented on the irony that when she was living in Asia and had 'help' she had no kids. After she moved to the US and had no 'help' any more she had 2 kids.
