church this morning was good. i was playing bass and jiggled about so much whilst playing i did over half of my daily 10,000 steps by the end of the service.
we then regrouped and drove 20 minutes to a sculpture park which has been set up for a few weeks
there was some really good art, including these kiwis.
this appeared to be Pongo Stonks new abode (he was a made up character who the girls made up who used to live on the verge off Lodge Road, new Church Hill in Twyford – he had his own song and everything)
then we did some geocaching on the sea bed (the tide was out)
this evening kezia had flippa ball. it was the semi final and her team won 6-3. it was a tricky game. another one of those funny ones where the other team had a deadly serious coach with a clip board and a coat. and our team is run by a couple of teenagers, and the kids are jumping in and out of the pool randomly before and after the game. but they still manage to win each week and seem to enjoy it !
this evening Biffy and Malcolm popped round which was very nice
only other news is that we had lunch outside today but it was a bit windy so all the crisps blew off my plate and down the table. luckily my sandwich was less aerodynamic and stayed put.
and there were various family skypings by and to various family members throughout the day, including a chance to catch up with my new nephew Finlay who is making some lovely gurgling baby sounds !
