This was meant to be our on-the-way-home treat - stopping by Hull and seeing Freya for the first time, and catching up with Kate and Chris, we hadn't seen them in ages!!
In the end , we went to see them, and then left the next morning and went back to Carlisle to check out a few more papers.
Chris had cooked us a gorgeous Nadiya-friendly dinner and we all had time to hang out, which was very nice. Kate, far more pregnant than I am, was pretty tired! It was a strange glimpse of a few months ahead for me!!! (although she works incredibly hard, brave thing, and I do my utmost to rest lots and lots!!!)
We took Freya a Miffy cuddly toy and she most gratifyingly loved it and cuddled it and kissed it. Excellent child.
Their dogs were pretty impressive - very well-trained, and I wasn't THAT scared, although they very kindly kept them away from me most of the time. Chris had a bit of a campaign to get me over my fears going on ... and I do think it helped in the end - I stopped being scared, but to be honest dogs still gross me out and I just don't want the drool on my clothes!!! Oh dear ... so much to get over before baby gets here.
