On the last Sunday of half term we headed off to Chessington for two days - we had a fab time but not many opportunities to take photos on those big rides! |
We spotted a baby Blackbird ( I think) outside on the patio one morning. |
We were very excited to receive a YUU bag to review - we haven't posted yet but the girls love it! |
With the flurry of plants and planting at the weekend I thought I really should (belatedly) get some bedding plants and plant up at least a couple of hanging baskets and containers and these were the results. |
The girls were ridiculously over excited to get a baby Oleg meerkat (courtesy of my boss) - I have even had to make him a blanket!! |
The first harvest of our own strawberries and raspberries this year - yum! |
Just before we went to Chessington we rescued a bat and it has been nursed back to health by a Bat Carer who brought it back to release it on Friday night. It is a Whiskered Bat and the girls were very excited to be allowed to stay up late to see the release. You can read all about it here. |
And yesterday was #WorldGinDay - hurrah an excuse for a G & T! |
For all those far more conscientious bloggers head on over to The Boy and Me:
cheers to world gin day! That ride at Chessinton looks a bit 'high' blimey !! good shot of it though. the back pack looks amazing and perfect for school with all of its compartments. i remember finding a bat once and taking it to a rescue centre locally when i was a teenager! anyway, glad to see you back this week x
ReplyDeleteOh no, I didn't even know it was world gin day - I'll have to make up for it today! That ride looks fun!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like one BIG big wheel - what a fantastic shot. The baby bird made me chuckle - it looks very serious! And your soft fruit harvest looks very tasty :)
ReplyDeleteYesterday is officially my favourite day, love World Gin Day (and World Whisky Day!) Great pictures, and wow the big wheel went high! x #project365

ReplyDeleteWho needs excuses to drink gin :) a great photo of the girls together. Very interesting about the bat.but kind of unnerving too.
