Warhammer World

On the way home from Windsor we stopped at Nottingham so that the boys could visit Warhammer World. They both collect different armies, so really wanted to go and visit it. What a place. They have a huge gaming area with lots of different tables to play on. Upstairs is the collection of painted miniatures which the boys gazed longingly at.


Then in the shop they got to play the Lord of the Rings Mines of Moria game with the assistant explaining it to them. Quess what we had to buy - yes the Mines of Moria, so we are now collecting the Lord of the Rings as well. I suppose it keeps them quiet and out of mischief.

Legoland

Holidays were fab, Legoland was great, and the weather - it was actually better and warmer than some of our days in summer this year!


The boys loved Legoland, Andrew especially like the Driving School. I even went on most of the scary rides with John - including the Jungle Coaster!!!!!

John and I on the Viking River Splash - I got very wet!!

Picture of a pink flamingo at Legoland - just for my sister.

They even had Dr Who and the Tardis!

We enjoyed Windsor and the Castle as well. We ventured up to Oxford which is a lovely place - Gordon and I would certainly hope to return there again (without the kids!) sometime. Will try and upload some more photos this week.

25th of September

No I'm not going crazy - well not yet!! Here are my pages for 25th September, thankfully before I take photos again in October.


I have been busy this week transferring all Gordon's stuff from the old study to the new one, and we are just about finished. Which is just as well as we are off on holiday on Friday for a week. We are going down to Windsor and visiting Legoland - so cameras charging! I really hope the weather improves a bit though and that it is at least dry.

Photos from 25th

Here are a few of my photos from the 25th of September, which I hope to get scrapped today. We were to try some reflections, so I took my kitchen reflected in my toaster and a picture of myself in my wardrobe mirror.



We have had the decorators in last week and today the joiners are in putting up some shelves in my husbands study - for his ever increasing number of books. We have been swapping rooms round, so when the study is finished the decorators come back and do the new day room for us to sit in.

More Pages

I know that we are now into October but I thought I would still try and finish my LSN book on the theme of being thankful. I did make some notes during the month of September and am now trying to finish the pages - not necessarily in date order though!

On day 12 I was very organised and have booked our holidays for next July, we are going to this house isn Beadnell, Northumbria. The house is just across the road from the beach - so I hope we get some better weather next year.


For Day 15 I thought about the telephone and how good it is to talk and catch up with people, I had a nice long conversation with a friend I haven't spoken to in a while and it was good to hear all the news.


For Day 16 I was thankful that despite the rain and being planted a bit late my sunflowers have eventually flowered!

Jumping to Day 20 I had to call out the doctor to see Mum who wasn't very well - and they came really quickly, so I thought it would be good to be thankful for the doctors and nurses. Mum is a bit better now but still rather tired.
