Taken a few weeks but I have finally put up something about our Keswick trip. We set off cars fully laden, in the morning of the 24th December, David’s 18th, to spend 5 days in a cottage in Keswick with our good friends, Family Y. We had the most amazing time and amazingly are still […]

Israel
Steven, Rachel and myself set off for Israel for a fortnight on the 12th July, leaving the boys in charge at home! We managed to keep tabs on them, ish, due to apple facetime and free wifi in the flat. Thankfully it rained so the garden was ok apart from the hanging baskets. To see […]
Fun in the snow
Well here are three young men, two of which have the day off from school because of the weather. They could either (a) use their time to revise for their modules next week – after all they want to go to Veterinary and Medical School or (b) mess about in the snow! Click below on […]
David’s 17th Birthday
Gosh, its nearly a year since I posted last – sorry about that! David is now 17 and to celebrate the puppy went sledging in the morning with Family Y (younger elements of). Then he came back for the cake that his sister rescued after his Mother decided to take it out of the tin […]

Ayesgarth Falls on a sunny Bank Holiday weekend
With Jonathan working, the four of us went off in search of a ‘teashop walk” – Steven’s new book, easy walks in Yorkshire with a teashop somewhere on the walk. Well the overweight, ancient ones set the pace and at stage 5 out of 14 the children begged for mercy and we stopped. What wimps! […]
No Rain today – but plenty of water!
So for a bank holiday there was no rain – Hooray! However there was plenty of water about – look at the photos and judge for yourselves (look at the changing state of Steven’s clothes!) I think our boys need a little more practice – unfortunately we’re not volunteering, especially after they insulted our steering! […]
We The Women of The Book
I, and over 30 other women, have recently finished one of the most absorbing courses that I have attended. Shirley was inspirational! These photos were taken from the Graduation meal at the MAZCC – sorry that I’ve not managed to capture everyone. If you would like some copies then please contact me. To view the […]
