This is me on my way home after a night out with my baby sister and her girlfriends in London. It might have been even wilder if the pub hadn't closed at 11.30, the Vodka Bar had already closed by the time we got there at around midnight and my sister and her friends were all tucked in by 4. Having nobody left to play with I tottered off too. I woke at 8 almost fit for fight, just needed a few cups of tea and a small bit of toast and then it was back to Heathrow where everything was delayed because of the snow.
I did feel a bit wobbley on the way, the lights were rather bright and it felt like there was a plane just above my head, but it was worth it. I managed to squeeze a lot in to one weekend: fish and chips, shopping, steak and ale pie, a win on the National (Comply or Die), had my hair done and met up with all my sisters. On a global scale it perhaps wasn't so good, but it did me a world of good. Thank you baby sister, I hope your boss and your best friend are still talking to you, and thank you middle sister for taking such good care of me, and thank you big sister for keeping me in order.

The Horner sisters sound a pretty formidable team, don't they? I'm glad I'm their father for all sorts of reasons, and we take full credit for their early training. Much love, Ma and Pa.
Four smart girls. Are they all as great as you? Glad you had a break - a;ways good for busy Mums.
All that and you still had time for reflection (and a photo to prove it) at the airport. Horner girls are such cerebral celebs!
you were in London getting pissed and didn't tell me?
you're forgiven as I like you.
this time ;-) x
I was wondering who kept 'Big Sister' in order? It's nice to know the younger Horner women are keeping up the matriarcal traditions and enjoying life!
M&A, yes, thank you;)
PI, yes, they are and in many ways greater. It was a well needed break.
Crowbard, yes, and on both sides too!
JP, yes and no, but not because I don't like you, just because it was girls only, sorry... not my choice, but good fun anyway.
Hello Auntie Maggie
I thought you were keeping Big sister in order?
