Circuit training
A few weeks ago, we got a flyer through the door for a local weekly circuit training session. Lucy said we should go, to which I replied the usual, "yeah, yeah" ... and what happened? Last Wednesday, Lucy dragged me along to circuit training! Given that I haven't done any exercise since, well, since forever... lets just say that my joints are still aching! (Lucy is sore too, not as bad as me though ...…
Little Miss Defiant
We can't believe it's been over 6 months since we last updated the site! Apologies to family & friends who have missed our postings. I'm trying to persuade Lucy to update it too. (Wish me luck!) We've got a backlog of photos and videos from over Christmas and Katelyn's 2nd Birthday... we'll get around to posting these very soon! Meanwhile, here's a lovely photo of Katelyn... our very own Little Miss Defiant!…

Wells is a beautiful city, I never…

So one Saturday morning we decided to go for a walk over the hill, head across The Star for lunch and slowly wander back. We knew that Cadbury Hill wouldn't be ideal for pushing Katelyn in her buggy/pram... so we brought out "the harness"! Unlike other harnesses I've used, this one has the baby on the back. I…
Katelyn's First Birthday
Since Katelyn's 1st Birthday fell mid-week, we thought it would be best to have a little party the weekend before, so that most people could make it. What started off an a simple get together for "tea & cake" slowly spiralled out of control. A few sandwiches turned into a buffet and the teas & coffees turned into beer and wine (and plenty of it) ... and there was still lots of cakes! I'd set-up an…
