Castle started well and won the first two games...
Then drew one and lost one...
We thought the team had missed the chance of playing in the semis, but they called us back for a playoff...
The playoff finished 0v0...

Sound of Music

The plan was to sit out by the bandstand in Southsea on a balmy warm summer evening and watch the Sound of Music.  It turned out to be a bit chilly....but still good fun :-) 
Wrapped up ready for the film...
The Sound of Music on Southsea seafront....

Festival of Speed

Me and Joe had a lads day out at the Festival of Speed today...
Joe entered a motorbike race...
And he got some ideas for bike tricks in the garden!!!
There were some BMX riders too, but they spent most of their time on their phones...teenagers :-)

Joe helped to build a car out of Lego....
Electric F1 car....
There were lots of virtual reality driving games to have a go on...
Wanna lift?
This was Joe's favourite car of the day...
We went to have a look at the hill climb race....
We sat in the grandstand by the Molecomb corner....
One car didn't quite make it round....opps....
We liked this old car in the paddocks, and then saw it race past on the hill climb....
Old F1 cars....
And new ones.  This is Jenson Button's current F1 car (I think?)
Joe had a go in the student race formula...
My Favourite....Morgan....
What!?!?!   Top fuel Dragster.  These car do 0-60 mph in 0.2 seconds!
A selection of Joe's photos....
Great day out with the March's.....
