Took Reagan to Staffordshire Show Ground today for the church camping trip. Spent most of the day there helping everyone put up their tents and get Reagan and her friend settled in their tent before driving away leaving her to it. We had not eaten all day because we thought we were just going to […]
I picked up the guitar again today for the first time in a long time and enjoyed 20 minutes plucking away at the opening riff of Redemption Song by Bob Marley. It’s very rewarding to hear a recognisable tune eminate from a musical instrument I am playing. Reagan was home this afternoon and came down […]
Sometimes it would be nice if the weather was just nice? 20? and fine for days would be summer, and yes I know it’s impossible to predict the weather nor guarantee it but cold and damp when it should be summer is depressing. I’d love to get out and do a bit on my shed […]

It rained today and although Jamie and me got to walk Billy to Starbies for a Sunday morning walk we only got a little wet. When we got back I went to work on my shed to see if I could get the two brackets made that will hold up the gable overhang at the […]
With kids about old enough to be left alone with a set of simple instructions, don’t answer the door, no cooking and no candles. The latter aimed at Reagan who has a liking for bats with candles copying her Momma, but we ha e had to nip in the bud because it’s dangerous! So with […]
I wasn’t expecting “How big do penis’s grow?” on the school run but Lincoln surprised me this morning with the first “Talk” He began by telling me about the lesson he had yesterday about puberty and how he was praised along with Archie and a couple of other boys for taking the lesson seriously from […]
After a good night’s sleep I rolled over and hugged my wife and we slept a little bit more, when we got up it was laugh starting our days as she made sure Lincoln was OK and ready for school before getting herself ready to go to work in her office in the garden. She […]
