Mr and Mrs Joyce

Spent a lovely evening with the Joyce's at their wedding reception on Saturday night. It was a proper Ramsgate party.

Exam

Uh oh. It is that time but to be honest I just want it out of the way now, fail or pass. 

Marriage

Emily has been getting married lots recently. Here she is with her latest husband Prince Albert.

Post Holiday Blues

Grrrrrrrrr. It's hard going back to work after a lovely family holiday, especially after what happened before we left to go away. However the week passed without incident and we made it safely to the weekend. Bekie is on a hen weekend this weekend so it is just me and the kids (who have found this first week back especially draining!).

Keith, Lois and I have booked tickets to Liverpool Festival of Psychedelia in September. It should be a great do with lots of shoegazer, droning types of bands playing.

Beth has got new glasses. Last weekend she had her eyes tested and the picture below was taken after the pupil-dilating eye drops were administered.

Poisonous Gas by Beth Stringer

Alas I smell gas!

The war is so mighty

When will I ever go back to Blighty

I hope the war won't last long

What is that smelly pong?

Britain is the biggest nation

Where is the cleaning station?

I wear khaki-green

All my comrades are so lean

We have guns, no buns

I am underage, locked up in a cage, captured by Germany

We had a night attack and I am free

Sadly I got covered in wee

I see a wild boar lying down on the floor

He was shot (not by a robot)

Back from Tenerife

Got the holiday blues after 7 lovely days in Tenerife. We all had a lovely time and Granny B had a memorable 70th birthday. Back to work tomorrow and not particularly excited about that but I'll console myself with the photos from our trip - some of which I'll post here.

Pool action

Beth enjoyed a few shots at the driving range

Happy Easter!

Walk of Dooooom

I will be setting myself a personal challenge in July whereby Steve and I will be attempting to walk 50 miles in one day around the lovely pastures of East Kent. We are trying to raise money for the Upton Junior School Save Our Pool fundraising campaign, which is attempting to save the swimming pool from permanent closure. The pool is not only used by the kids of Upton but also eleven other schools in the area.

If you are feeling generous and would like to encourage our nutty crusade around Kent you can sponsor us using the link below. Many thanks.
