managing expectations …

OK, so it’s not a bike related post but last week Pat and I had Daniel and Emma with us for the best part of the day. We had bought them a tent for the garden, although what we thought was a tent was actually to become a church (or so Daniel and Emma told […]

No Comments
| Family, General

Yesterday was Daniels 4th birthday and had all the excitement and anticipation that any four year could want. Pat has made some decent cakes in the past and I’m not quite sure which have been the best,  but yesterdays must be a contender. In the past we have had the Gruffalo Cake, which was right […]

Yesterday Sarah called with the children and despite all the ‘proper’ toys available to play […]
