Well we have genuine exciting stuff to report this week.
We do indeed, how about we start off with the Olympic torch coming to Newbury!
Yeah, how about that? We were allowed a day off school to go and see it which was obviously brilliant.
We didn't even have to go with boring old Mum and Dad either, no, instead went with Darcey, Laura, Auntie Trish and Auntie Christine.
The only slight downer was that we had to walk all the way to town from Auntie Christines, as we all know, I don't do walking.
I've never seen town so busy, it was mad! There were people everywhere and we couldn't even get accross the market place!
We made the best of where we were though:
Caught a peek of the torch, waved some flags and generally got into the spirit of the whole thing.
After things had calmed down a bit we met up with Mum for a picnic lunch in the park.
Before I had to walk all the way back again.....boo and indeed hoo.
We had a great time and are now totally hyped for the Olympics coming up.
Yeah, thanks for taking us!
As if I hadn't done enough on my feet for one day it was dancing day as well. Still, another lesson, another star sticker for me for a great piece of dancing I threw down.
And then in another milestone event it was my lasy parents evening of reception year. A full half hour appointment it was as well.
Yeah, Ellis and I had a lovely time playing in the Reception playground, it seems like ages since I was there.
Anyway, it sounds like i'm doing really well and Mum and Dad were very pleased with my progress.
We took Dad shopping again on Thursday, and again it went surprisingly well.
How could it not? We're so helpful after all!
Friday, we packed up and headed west for a sneaky weekend in the caravan, a starter before the main event if you will later on in the 'summer'
Yeah, how exciting. We had the usual late night to bed but we were soon tucked up in bed, getting charged up for a couple of days on the beach.
To add even more excitement, Finley was down as well, with Chris and Kate and Bailey the dog!
Oh we loved Bailey.
We really loved Bailey. So much so we even borrowed him to take him for a walk.
We shared him really nicely and I reckon he had a lovely time:
Yeah, at last. It was wetsuits on and climbing, diggging and splashing time for sure.
Weirdly, I also got seriously into my body boarding as well. Like really into it. I haven't been that bothered before but for some reason I couldn't get enough of it!.
We rounded the day off with a barbecue and a bout of Tom and Jerry cartoons.
Tom and Jerry...brilliant! Can't believe we'd never seen it before.
Sunday then, more sunshine...better get back on the beach!
Yeah, I was chomping at the bit to get back in the sea again. I was asking about tide times, wind conditions and all the rest of it. I even suggested we take a packed lunch down with us so we could stay all day long.
I was happy with that arrangement, plenty of time to get into my climbing, I love climbing:
I made friends with another boy my age and we went off surfing together, I didn't even want Mum or Dad to come with me, we had a great time.
And then John put in a brief showing, he showed us some really cool climbing routes up the rocks with his extensive local knowledge.
We stayed on the beach all afternoon before heading back up to pack up and leave.
Stopping off at the pub on the way home for a meal and a drink to tide us over on the journey home.
Cheers Andy and Owen, great fun as always chaps, can't wait until next time!
We didn't get home until pretty late at night so it was straight to bed when we arrived home.
Monday, we were all pretty sleepy....especially Mum.....
