A day with Auntie Christine. We got to the cinema early doors for Angry Birds which was great fun! Next up, Wetherspoons for lunch and then we even managed to get a trip to Mr Moo juice for afters.....we felt a little bit sick after all that lot.
Ned recovered quickly enough to go out biking with Dad to Tidworth. Mum and I took a more sedate ride into town. I bought a squirty bottle from Wilko's, i've always wanted one of my own and I was thrilled with it. When we got home Mum crimped my hair beautifully, but I soon uncrimped it again when I got carried away with my new squirty mist bottle when I was supposed to be watering my plants. I rather soaked myself as well as the plants.
Wednesday
Mum off with us today, so no hurry to get out of bed. Her scheduled activity was going to be a trip into town and a visit to Mr Moo Juice, but as we had already done that yesterday we didn't bother going again. Ned and Mum tidied his room a bit....I didn't fancy tackling mine.
We managed to fit Team Kennet into our busy schedule, we had a new coach, as usual they were rather taken aback by my throwing prowess the first time they saw me with the Vortex. Jenny, one of the regular coaches gave me a knowing smile.
Thursday
Keeping the hoildayarrangements mixed up it was Dragon club today. It was good to be back. We took our bikes, which was great until one of the other boys ploughed into my back wheel, bending my gear mech quite badly, stopping the wheel from going round...oops.
As well as the outside stuff we also had arty stuff covered with some stone painting which was good.
Friday
Dragon club again, today with my scooter as I needed a new part to fix my bike.
It was disco day which featured Now 94 rather heavily. Tom went in the stocks to round the week out.
In the evening Mum and Ned went out wandering the streets looking for Pokemon while Dad and I had a game of swingball and then rigged up a limbo pole with our garden canes we'd used for the den building. He didn't even try but I got pretty low!
Saturday
A nice lazy morning,we didn't really know what to do today, a commin problem during the holidys when we do cool stuff all week.
I here was a brief break in the cloud so we made a quick oicnic and went down the outdoor pool. We had it pretty much to ourselves! I learned to dive again, I used to be able to years ago but seemed to have forgotten somehw. I also did a lot of dive stick collection down the deep end which made my ears hurt after a while! Just as we left Finlay and Millie arrived (and the sun came out) so that was a shame.
We had time for a brief rest and change before going out to meet up with Ned's friend Kieran, his Mum and Dad and best of all, Kieran's younger sister! I'd heard a lot about Lydia and was seriously excited to finlly get to meet her. After a brief spell of initial awkwardness we soon found out we had a lot in common (KD gymnastics, a past dalliance with ballet, a lot of mutual friends and of course, annoying older brothers). We went to the bowlers arms, there was a cricket match on so,we had to be a bit careful until that was finished, but once they were done we had the run if the field and the crease covers that were still on the side of the field. We stayed for tea and everything and had a great time. We didn't leave until 10pm
Sunday
Bit of a late decision again, but we got ourselves another picnic together and went to Dinton Pastures. We hadn't been there for ages so once we had filled ourselves up with grub it was on to the playground:
The climbing seemed just as challenging as ever:
We had a walk around the lake which gave Ned plenty of chances to snare some Pokemon. The highligt of the walk was a couple of grumpy swans near a bench who hissed like mad every time a dog came to say hello to them.
We rounded the weekend off with a game of Dixit (Mum won, boo).Monday
Another day off with Mum today. The weather wasn't up to much so it was round Tesco cor a DVD. We actually agreed on what to get, Kung Fu Panda 3. I also treated myself to a small box of Fererro Rocher and most excitingly, a doughnut for my hair.
The film was really good, my hair was even better:
