D tried her best but she just couldn’t make the ice crack and she loved it! After a few weeks, today was the first time we’d been able to walk home from school through the “deep, dark woods”. A combination of roadworks as we approach D’s school and heavy rain meant that either the woods […]
Well, we did it. We all got there to watch (what was left of T’s team following recent events) playing friendly matches together with and against other players, who may or may not end up joining the team to add some much-needed numbers. To say we all got there was a definite achievement. D isn’t keen […]
D is usually “in the pink” with what she wears, but today she was “on the pink”, the pink trike that is. D has never been able to ride a two-wheeled bike or a two-wheeler scooter, she hasn’t got the balance or co-ordination. She uses trikes at school so I knew one at home would […]
We saw a lot of this today, the River Thames, thanks to a local charity and couple of boat crew. It was a 2 hour meander up and down the river, past some absolutely amazing houses: And this boathouse shows just how high the river got in January, half way up! Which made me quite […]
This was T, having a bit of a skip and a muck around after our trip out, it reminded me of the “Bring Me Sunshine” ending from old Morecambe and Wise shows (always fun to see on YouTube). D was laughing away watching her brother, running to catch up, but T is much, much faster. […]

By Jeannette | August 2, 2014
D and I have had a bit of a girlie day today, whilst the menfolk were at football. Our day has involved the Deep Dark Wood, some baking and some kitchen dancing – perfect! Earlier on in the week, we all went blackberry picking, things got a tad competitive and D and I decided to […]
I’ve only just realised that today is Friday 13th, after typing in the date. Unlucky for some, but probably explains why Hubbie and I have been a tad snappy with each other today, that and the massive roller coaster week we’ve just had. Anyway…. D and I had a school run with a difference today, […]
Today was a day when we didn’t have anything specific planned, after a busy yesterday it was preferable for T and D that we avoided crowded areas so we did this: Well, not exactly that, we’re not the Von Trapp’s after all but similar. There is a field near us, previously owned by the University. […]
A much better day today for D, the sunshine always makes such a difference to her. She also had an inset day whilst T went back to school today, they individually take great delight in being off if the other isn’t, bless them!! We dropped T off and then went to the park, on the […]
