The past 2wks the 260, Br*adland Rd was so lively with voices, laughter,ect,etc & today, it resumes to its normal quiet situation, just the three of us. Syawal's sister a.k.a my SIL came with her hubby for holiday. Thanks to Air Asia.. now everyone can fly.
Anyway, I think they had a great time here. The 2 wks stay is actually quite short to do everything in UK. We just brought them to mostly all of the interesting places close to Soton & they managed to make a short trip to paris too. We missed the Windsor castle though b'cos suddenly syawal got terrible back shoulder pain that day. And not forgetting, their shopping experince. I bet they'll find shopping is heaven here, hehehe. We share the cost of travelling + eating together & of course we're happy with that.


They went back early this morning & all of us sent them to the Stansted airport. And now, I am still tired of travelling there as we we woke up as early as 4.30am. The initial plan was, only syawal will take them to stansted. However, syawal experienced a very bad back pain yesterday. So I decided to follow them, afraid something happened to syawal on the way there. We arrived at the airport about 8am & it was just nice time for them to check-in. Luckily everything was OK except their hand luggage was overweight so they have to leave one luggage of dirty laundry here. This is my 1st time seeing they weigh the hand luggage. From my experiences b4, they only measure the size of the hand luggage but never weigh them. Now I know, the limit for hand luggage is 10kg & it's ok if you bring two hand luggage, provided the other one is just a small hand bag. We then left the airport about 9am.

I was really sleepy on my way to and from stansted. Luckily I was not the driver and the driver, Syawal was sleepy too. He took a short nap at the services when we're on our way back. Anyway, not to make our long journey to stansted a waste, I asked syawal if we could stop at popat store as I wanted to complete my Corelle collection. Furthermore, I just received my pay cheque yesterday. Thankfully, syawal agreed since it was still early & we didn't have to pay the congestion charge. besides, I knew he wanted to go the Chennai dosa. Both place were just opened when we arrived and about 11.30am we're already on our way back to soton & reached home about quarter past 1. Once we reached home, both of us jumped on the bed straight away & syafique enjoyed him playing computer.
We woke up about quarter to 4 & luckily we still have leftovers from yesterday. Had late lunch & suddenly I feel the house is very quiet. Luckily, this quietness won't be too long. In about 2 wks, it's gonna be lively again, yay. However... the thought of going to stansted airport again make us feel exhausted. It takes about 2 hrs from Soton to stansted in avery smooth traffic. We'll at least make another 4 trips go to/from there, huhuhuhu.
I am still tired though... not b'cos of the travelling but been bullied by my two boys. It doesn't make any difference at all whether I'm pregnant or not, I'm always their waitress, huhuhu. My mind is exhausted too. I feel like I have so many things to do in the next few days...aargghhh
