Mummy's ps

Having wrestled the laptop (a new one btw!) back from Danny and thanked him profusely for updating the blog, I just thought I'd add a couple of things:-

I won my public inquiry - whoo hooo!
Rik has acquired a bicycle and now intends to cycle to the train station; there's even a little seat for Dan soe he can be taken to nursery.
We're wondering where summer has gone (the heating has gone back on and we lit a fire last night!)..... but enjoyed the Olympics; swimming, rowing, gymnastics, equestrianism and tennis is now over so we'll probably stop! The running and jumping bits are always more boring.

And now that the floor is done and the back room is done, it's bite the bullet time and get some estate agents in to see what they say. Mind you, we need to finish putting everything back in the spare bedroom first!

Also trying to see if we can arrange a couple of days holiday in September ..... our hols in Suffolk seem an awful long time ago!

nothing really exciting going on as you can see so I'll stop and go and have some dinner.

Dan's Doins - August 2008

the final instalment: white boys can jump!

Well I can anyway. And Mummy assures me that by "jump" I do mean bend the knee, spring up, both feet leave the ground at the same time - sometimes I move forward too. It's great fun! I like doing it a lot.

Mummy wants me to say that the new kitchen floor is finally in - HURRAY!! - and the spare bedroom has gone from the general allsorts to an almond and biscuit colour. Unfortunately Mummy's camera battery is dead so no photos can be displayed yet ..... and this particular battery seems to be difficult to replace. Daddy does have a camera of his own but he hides it so it cannot be used unless he decides to use it.... oh dear

The kitchen floor is great for running on, driving on and pushing cars and trains along.

Dan's Doins - July 2008

In July Mummy n Daddy n me went to a lovely hotel in Warwickshire for cousin Pippa's wedding.
I wore my first suit (sorry the photos aren't very clear!)

And we thought Pippa and Damian looked great - Mummy's has this picture on her laptop ever since .....


Bella and I had a lovely time playing together and she looked great too

Dan's Doins - way way overdue!

Hiya Dan here. Have wrestled the computer from Mummy in order to update the blog; cos she NEVER DOES .... and we can't even claim lack of technology! So, this was June. Mummy and Daddy and I went to a lovely cottage in Suffolk where there were lots of interesting corners to explore, and a garden and some stairs
This is the cottage

. Here is Daddy and me flying a kite - the kite's the smudge in the sky!



We visited a castle where I showed Saffron the nursery bear how cannons worked...... and tried taking it for a walk.


If Mummy ever gets the hang of it, I shall suggest she puts some more photos on Facebook.
