The Family Fun Day

Regular readers will recognise the person who won the jar of sweeties for guessing the right number of sweets. (I think it was 93).
We'll give her a level 1 (National Curriculum) for estimation skills!!

A generous son!


At present we are in the middle of decorating the kitchen. Some days there has been too much mess for cooking. That £20 note ended up buying a Chinese takeaway for us! Thanks, Ali - it was the best chinese I have ever tasted!

The Olympic Stadium

This appears to be the main venue - as far as I can see from the train on my weekly visit to my grandchildren.


This is the swimming pool - amazingly they have put up the roof before the walls or anything else!

Alexandra Palace

Up bright and early today to go to theBig Scrapbook and Stamp Show. Been looking forward to it for ages. Wait a moment, where is everyone?

It was lovely, no queue for the ladies, and no one in the Palm Court.

Just a shame there were no stalls either!
I don't know what made me think it started today!
