A lovely weekend - part two - Manchester

After the bootsale we arrived home, still in glorious sunshine. It was a big afternoon. Back in 2009 we bought four tickets to go and see Peter Kay on his Tour That Doesn't Tour in Manchester. Little did we know that by the time the gig actually arrived we would be with child.

Although Simon has been away from Della when he went to help his Dad in Aberdeen for a few days and I have been out for a night out with Anna we had not yet been for a night out together without Della. So after a quick change and a run down of what my parents had to do at what time we were off to Manchester with Uncle Nick and Sarah.

When we got to Manchester we split from Nick and Sarah and headed out to have a nice meal just the two of us and it was delightful!

It seems that when Della is not around there is no reason to take any photos so this is our one shot from our night out:

Mmm... Iron Bru

Following food we headed off to the Arena and met back u with Nick and Sarah. It turns out you can't take liquids into the MEN so Simon managed to drink a bottle of Fanta in record time and Nick burst crisps into his pockets - because thats not suspicious if you get searched! Peter Kay was as funny as you would expect and without giving away the punch line (you will all see his DVD I'm sure!) his encore was one of the funniest things we have ever seen in live comedy.

While we were out Della had a lovely time looking at tree's with her grandparents and managed to be very well behaved giving out the smiles and taking her food with ease.

Nick said he would come with us only if we didn't talk about poop or sick for the whole evening. We did better than this and managed to have conversations for the whole night without really even mentioning Della. Although i had a few sneaky texts to make sure she was ok.

Bring on more babysitting and more nights out for me and Simon!!
