Blaze Castle

We had a good time at Blaze castle the boys played on the swings and slides and Daniel had a great time in the sand, it also brought back happy memories of when Siew Gin, Tyler and Cody came over and enjoyed it here.

Daniel waiting for us to get our shoes on the mark on his chin is where he rode his scooter into a gate.

Grandad and Jake playing with the frisbie

Come on Grandad I am waiting.

We also went round the house and it was very interesting made me feel old to see an old washing machine that I could remember from my childhood.  Then we went off for lunch.

Jake's Pictures

Jake had a great time in the butteryfly house and took some good pictures of them and of the months.

Day at Bristol Zoo

I have't been to the Zoo for a few years and there are quite a lot of improvements and they now have some more play areas for the children.

Daniel soon got fed up with the animals and went off with daddy for an ice cream, then it was off to play on the toys this is a picture of him on the bus.

When Jake discovered that Daniel had been eating ice cream he had to have one as well, I do not think he could get much more on his spoon.

While Daniel and Sarah went off to the play park, Barry, Jake and I went on to look at more animals.

Jake could not resist going into the meerkat area and pretend to be a meerkat he wanted them to come and look in at him but unfortunately they didn't.

Picture of Jake and Daniel playing in the water they had just made a dam and were waiting for the water level to rise.

Daniel had a great time playing in this boat.

It was when I got home I realised I had not taken any picture of the animals.

Gorilla's in Bristol

There are about 60 gorilla's in and arround Bristol all painted with different designs, Jake and Daniel are trying to have their photo's taken with as many as possible this one was outside Bristol Zoo.

Day Out with Daniel

Went up for a few days to visit Barry, Sarah and the grandchildren, on my first day Sarah decided to take Jake to the pictures so Barry and I took Daniel to the park.

We could not believe that Daniel wanted to go on the swing as he really dose not like them, I think it was because the baby was on there.

When we got fed up with the swings we went to the Mall and visited the toy shops then for a quick game at another play area before meeting up with Sarah and Jake for lunch. 

Sarah took Jake home while we finished our lunch then a quick trip to Toys R Us.

Garden Flowers

We have had a good year in the garden for flowers this year and we are very pleased with the hanging baskets.

Very pleased as we brought on all these plants ourselves.

Last year Daphne sent us these fushias and we managed to take cuttings and bring them on again we will try and save them again for next year because they are different types they come in to bloom at different times.

This rose only produced a couple of flowers last year so we decided it had to go well it must have heard us as this year it has gone made and even produced new shoots.

Patrick was so pleased with this display it is a pity I did not take the picture last week.
