Nedster's World now featuring Ellis!

Tuesday

Feeling very creative at the moment, here we have a Blu-Tac mermaid I rustled up before school:

Wednesday

We did cross country in PE at school, which is a shame for a couple of reasons...one I dont like it and two it made my ankles and feet hurt before Team Kennet in the evening.  I'm loving it at the moment as Eloise is there every week.  We gave her a lift home so her Mum didn't have to stay up there, Mum and Dad dont mind hanging about seemingly?

Friday

Had Sasha round for tea after school, her mum said she doesn't usually eat much but she certainly put it away!  We made some perfume concoctions, fussed my soft toy collection and just enjoyed hanging out before film night at school.
We got dressed up for it of course:

We may have overdone it a little with the body glitter.....and used it in my hair....quite a lot of it.  I was certainly sparkly!!!
The film was Hotel Transylvannia 2, brilliant, I hadn't seen it!

Saturday

We rode into town to get a few bits (Ned bought himself a selfie stick that i'm very jealous of).  We had lunch by the canal before riding home again.  My bike riding is coming on really nicely now, i'm a lot less wobbly and more confident in traffic.
I had to pack my stuff for Sasha's, it was her birthday party (cake decorating at her house) and then I was staying for a sleepover.  I also took my roller skates as we were going to try and fit that in too. The party was really good, we made lots of lovely cakes and had a great time.  We did manage roller skating too which was good.  The sleepover was really good too, we were asleep by 11 which is apparently quite early for such an event.  We both do like our sleep though....

Sunday

We had Bacon sandwiches for breakfast.....lovely!  Then it was back home as Sasha's brother was at a restaurant rugby tournament.

I had a very pleasant surprise when I got home as everyone had decided to go to Hollycombe Steam Fair and drag Nate and Alan along.

I bagsied sitting next to Nate in the car, best journey ever....he's so fun at the moment.

We had a picnic when we arrived, the donkeys in the field were very interested in it:

They desperatley wanted to tuck into the picnic, but when they couldnt reach that, they tried to eat Alans coat!  Nate loved them but did insist on trying to poke his finger up their nostrils.

Once inside we took him on the carousel:

Which he loved, until the organ music starting booming out!

Mum and I went on the Razzle Dazzle, its still brutal but really fun.

He loved waving at me and Alan and Mum and Ned on the big wheel:

Dad was relieved he didnt have to go on it anyway.

Ned almost got himself stuck on the childrens roundabout:

We had a go on the swing boats, and for the first time ever I was actually tall enough to go on the bigger grownup ones.  Ned and I went together at first, so obviously we argued like hell.  We decided to swap around with Mum joining Ned and I went in with Dad.  We were soon so high we were scraping the nearby tree tops.

Ned thenhad a go with Alan and almost went into orbit!

We had to take the little man on the train of course:

After that it was in to the cafe for a hot chocolate (it was a really cold day) and then home.

Ned sat next to Nate who promptly fell asleep....as did I!

Monday

Back to school after a packed weekend.

We took Ned kayaking again and headed off down the park again.  We got dressed in more appropriate clothing this week as it was pretty cold.  Ned certainly looked a bit chilly when we saw him, he was soaked and had quite obviously been right in the canal!
