My birthday celebrations started Friday evening with a ‘pink pants party’. A novel Sophie and I had been reading together explained how pink pants ward off any Friday the 13th nastiness. Sophie and I liked this idea and I decided to incorporate it as my party theme. Another idea I liked was to ask if my guests would like to… Read more →
Denise,Tinanana and I this morning after a fantastic breakfast of bacon,waffles,muffins,maple syrup,coffee. My kitchen was full of eleven lovely people all eating and smiling. What a wonderful way to start the day and end a great holiday with Denise and Werner.
I was listening to Sophie reading out loud to me this morning. I had to stop her and get her to sound out a word when she mentioned ‘Jesus and his twelve apostrophes’.
Today in town Sophie stood mesmerised by a lady playing violin. Sophie is always drawn to the sound of the violin and loves watching and listening to fellow violinists playing. The lady didn’t seem perturbed by the little girl giving her a Paddington bear hard stare as she busked.
How different from one night to the next. Tonight I am sat in Rift bar drinking my complimentary cocktail from their new menu. The music is funky and the bar isn’t too busy yet. The new menu is filled with sweet options but tonight I settled for a long Island ice tea… Matt’s favourite. Let’s get the weekend off to… Read more →
I am sat writing this in a church hall surrounded by children from the scouting movement, rehearsing for this year’s ‘Gang Show’. Sophie is stood at the front of the crowd singing her little heart out. She loves preforming so Gang Show is perfect for her. If the quality of this year’s event is the same level as previous years,… Read more →
Jay was telling me about what he needed for his next food tec lessson. Filo pastry, soy sauce and assaulted vegetables. He did make me smile.
This evening, Matt took these gorgeous pictures of himself and Annie-Mo.
On Saturday we visited the Museum Of Film and Photography in Bradford. Matt had heard of an exhibition by Joan Fotcuberta called Stranger then Fiction. We were treated to wierd and wonderful creatures created by blending different animals together then photographed. Joan would then invent a Latin name and history for the animal. The viewer was left in state of… Read more →
Sophie had a great time making a snowman today with her friends after school
Here’s a photo of the rarely seen Felixus Teenageboyikus (often abbreviated to Felix) in a relaxed state inspecting Dada’s new smart watch. It may be many years before another moment comes to photograph this fabulous creature in his natural environment.
I just did a lovely thing, I typed Felix and Jaygo into Google images. There are some really lovely pictures reminding me of great past times.
Here is a picture of Annie-Mo at church today. She is cuddling two snuggley toys.
Hurray, it’s the weekend. I have just had my hair done which means zero hair maintenance all weekend and brilliant hair, even on pyjama days. Matt is cooking lovely dishes all weekend and has said he will get up with Annie-Mo if she wakes in the night. I have nothing I need to do until Sunday except encourage Sophie to… Read more →
Mischievous things I have found Annie-Mo doing recently; Drinking the dog water through a straw. Putting all the clean towels in the bath whilst it’s filling up. Drinking the guinea pig water. Raiding the fridge and tipping all the sweetcorn on the floor then eating some of it. Raiding the spice drawer, sneaking off with a big bag of cinnamon… Read more →
