When Charlene came to town

Charlene joined us on 28th April. Here she is with Marguerite as we made our way to see Boston Celtics v Chicago Bulls. Marguerite and Jude thought they were super cool having purchased Boston Celtics tops, but when Charlene came out of the room after getting dressed to go to the game, she was bedecked in Celtics gear from head to toe (top, cap, sweatbands, shoes). She had it as gear for the Hip-Hop classes she teaches and it was really coincidental that out of all the teams she could pick, she chose Celtics.
Now Marguerite has been heard saying to Jude, 'come on and we'll go out and watch the Celtics game in the pub.' It's nearly too good to be true muckers. Is Jude complaining? No way Jose. Will it last? Well, Marguerite has asked him to enquire re season tickets for next season.

It's last Saturday evening and Marguerite was doing a 'homer' on her side job, which is...............hairdressing. She does not cut hair or anything complicated like, I mean nothing messy, she just has a knack for 'upstyling'. Lisa Marie got wind of this and as she had a formal dinner to attend, she got Marguerite to do the honours. Here Marguerite is hard at work while Lisa Marie happily supps away at the vino.
Afterwards and Harry, Lisa Marie and Marguerite certainly all feel that the job is a resounding success judging by the smiles in this pic.


In fact Lisa Marie is so impressed she asks Harry to take a snap of the back of her head. Wha?Listen folks, you couldn't make this up so the pic is included as evidence!

Charlene, Harry, Lisa Marie and Marguerite were talking so much Jude couldn't get a word in edgeways.
On after Jude ran round Back Bay Fens Park 6 times on Saturday, Marguerite and Charlene decided they would attempt a few laps on Sunday morning. They did 3 laps (walking) which is not too bad. Jude was watching for them coming past the front window though and he spotted them starting to run just as they came into view and then stopping when they thought they were out of view. The gangsters were bluffing! They must think Jude came up Strangford Lough in a dingy. So after listening to Jude slagging them about this they decided they would reward themselves with a visit to the Cheesecake Factory. Chancers!

Ok, later in the week and we are making our way to another game. Check out Charlene's cool Celtics shoes there. Wha? Below right is a pic of Jude waiting to get the 'T'. He had moved away to the edge of the platform to escape the girls' conversations about make-up, folk crying at Jade Goody's funeral, shopping, the need for more shoes, and lots of other unbearable stuff.

Charlene, Jude & Marguerite enjoy the game.

Below are a few pics of our visit to 'Fire & Ice', a restaurant where you hand pick your own food, take it to the grill and have it cooked right in front of you. You can eat as much as you want too! Look at Jude, he's smiling so much god bless him, it's been so long since he had a proper meal, he probably thinks Christmas has come early. The chefs were certainly in good form. Charlene was chatted up so much by them when getting her starter she had to send Marguerite to get her main course.

The pic below shows the grill on which the food is cooked and the chefs preparing the food.

Following on from last week when Jude drove the 'Duck tour yoke', well Marguerite and Charlene decided sure that looks like a good laugh and booked themselves a wee Duck tour.

Here Marguerite is in complete control as usural (as Emma would say).

Unfortunately Charlene lost control completely and is seen here panicking as she struggles to keep the 'Duck' afloat. Ahhhhh!!

We are certainly not starving this week as here we are in another nice restaurant, this time a wee Malyasian number, ummmm! Check out the use of the auld chopsticks there muckers.
Here Marguerite and Charlene are all smiles as they've been out shopping today and bought themselves nice new watches. Sure it keeps them happy!
