Summer Various

Karen won the raffle at the School Fete!  £100 of Toys R Us vouchers.  So the kids went on a spending spree.  Joe thought about this....

But in the end he chose this awesome remote controlled car.  I think he's happy :-)

He even let Lisa have a go...

Lisa saved her cash for something in the future (very sensible), but had a go on the horses at the fair....

Dark clouds over the garden....Brexit! England v Iceland!  

Joe went out kayaking with Jack and Tom...

Chi Fest at Chichester College.  Lisa in a dancing show....

A pair of scallywags.....Iris and Joe :-)

We love the summer....

Karen's Garden Party

Today was Karen's Birthday Garden Party.  Here is the birthday girl getting ready the essentials for the party :-)

As it happened Wales were playing N. Ireland in the first knock out stage of Euro 2016.  There were a few 'proper' Welsh fans among us...

At half time we got stuck into Karen's amazing spread, inspired by her recent trip to the Med....

The kids played footy in our very soggy garden...

CAKE TIME!!!!   Not just yet kids :-)

Karen blowing out her candles...

The second half.  Wales won 1v0 to progress to the last 8 of the Euros!

We made a pretty good dent in the Serrano ham...

Happy Birthday Karen xxx
