Tuesday
Another day off with Mum, not much doing, but we like it like that sometimes.
We did go for a walk with Dad at lunchtime though.  We met him during his work lunch break and had a lap of the housing estate over there.  Turned into a bit of a nature walk as it goes, i'm really into blackberrying at the moment:
This great big dragonfly must have been too!
Dad went back to work and we carried on into town.  We went to the library where I collected my medal for finishing the reading challenge.  Unlike Ned though I didn't give up reading books after reaching my goal and got a couple more to keep me in reading material.  We carried on to the shops where I got a new fleecey cardy that I needed and a panda patterned coat that according to Dad I certainly did not.  It's so cool though......
It was badge week at gymnastics.  I gained a bronze vault award this week which I was very pleased with.

Wednesday
Dragon club day to day and as luck would have it, it was wheelie Wednesday.  A day themed for all things wheeled so it was rather excellent we had our bikes with us! The highlight of the day were the bike races that Ned and I did very well at.  He even managed to get the crowd chanting my name during my races.  He also gave me a few tips regarding gear selection which proved to be very helpful. I headed for the indoor activities in the afternoon, the main draw being den making involving draping sheets and blankets over the pool table and any other bits of furniture we could drag near enough. We created a right old rabbit warren in the end and it took quite a while for me to get out when Dad came to pick us up.

Thursday
We paid Nate a visit (and Hayley of course)
He's still proper cute.  He's a lot more interested in the world now which is cool.
Afterwards we went to Waitrose for a few bits, Panda came along for the ride:
He caused quite a stir!
Once Dad was home we headed for the seaside.  We did a spot of browsing in the surf shop in East Wittering and in a shocking turn of events I didn't buy anything.  We checked out the sea, but the waves were pounding into the pebble bank with such ferocity that no one really fancied a surf.  We carried on to West Wittering instead, the sea was a lot calmer and we enjoyed climbing the dunes and wandering along having a paddle.  We worked up a bit of an appetite in all that sea air so had hot dogs cooked on the camping stove:
We rounded the trip off with a game of boules.  I really got my eye in and played very well.

Friday
Another day at Dragon club, excellent.
We had a bit of a sports day, loads of tennis and what have you.  In the afternoon we watched a film and ate freshly made popcorn.  The day was topped of by Ned going in the stocks.  That'll teach him for being super dragon again.
After tea we took a walk up to Wash Common park again to shoot some hoops and throw a bit of vortex.

Saturday
The weather forecast was looking good so we rounded a few of the gang up, packed a picnic and went to the pool.  Kimi and Marny were already there when we got there and were loving it.  Later on Nate turned up for his first ever trip to a swimming pool.  We got to watch him take his first dip, how cool is that? He seemed to really like it too, well, he didn't burst into tears or anything anyway.
Finlay and Millie came along in the afternoon too, it was a great day out.
We went home and watched a load of rubbishy saturday night game shows, Mum tried to snuggle up with me but I was such a fidget I drove her mad.

Sunday
Not much happened today, which Dad wasn't happy about the grumpy bum.  There were quite a few disagreements which was a bit of a shame.
We did go out for a walk around the chase in the afternoon though.

Monday
Double Aunties on duty......and Darcey around, how cool.  Even better news, we were going Bowling.  We love bowling and hardly ever seem to go.  
The candy floss machine was a big hit:
As was the trip to Pizza Hut afterwards, could today be any more epic?  Well, yeah, with a trip to Sports Direct to buy a new giant pink tennis ball that i've been coveting for months seemed to confirm it could.  We had a lovely day, thanks ver much Auntie Trish and Auntie Christine.
It put us in such a good mood Ned and I didn't even argue when we got home.  Remarkabke at the moment.
