Catching up with old friends

Not old in terms of age though!  This evening Sian, who was one of our senior receptionists until she could resist the call of The Valleys no more, brought her mum in for dinner as a Mothering Sunday treat.  It was really good to catch up with Sian and her mum, I’ve hardly seen either of them since Sian left and most of the team here haven’t seen a lot of her either.  Many of them chat regularly on facebook and MSN but it’s not the same as meeting face to face.

They had some exciting news too as Sian’s brother Andrew became a dad again today - a little brother for Rhys.  Andrew and Rosie had been told they were going to have a little girl but out popped a boy!  No news on names yet but with strong Welsh connections in the family and being born on the 1st of March my money’s on “David” being in the mix somewhere.

After Sian and Joy had finished dinner they called at Reception for a brief chat and stayed for quite a while - Joy only dragging Sian off when her phone kept telling her it was out of battery, quite essential when they want to catch up on the family news.

Sian and Damien are now settled in Cwmbran, Sian working for acompany that makes promotional sweets.  If any of you remember Sian and want to pass on any messages (apart from orders for sweets) do please let me know.
