Must get round to reading The Order of the Phoenix again. I was in such a rush to get it read before anyone gave away the plot that I must have missed alot. Apparently there has been a pirate copy of the book recently released in Venezuela translating it into Spanish. Unfortunately the person translating […]

We had a busy day today. Megan went to Sean’s birthday party at Dreamieland in the Trafford Centre. She had a brilliant time. But all we could get out of her was how good the ride was… especially as it involved squirting water guns. We followed this up with a three hour trip to Ikea! […]

David Blaine has now been in his box 7 days. He is already feeling dizzy when he stands up..how does he expect to last 6 weeks without passing out. The latest annoyance has been a group of spectators shining laser pens at his face…very funny. He got the last laugh though, they were arrested because […]

Well Megan has finished her first week back at school. She was a bit reluctant because she has another new teacher, but she seems to have settled straight back in to it. As per usual she hasn’t done any work, or had any dinner…nothing new there then 🙂 Here she is looking smart in her […]

When we were out on Saturday the boot on our Megane wouldn’t unlock, which left us with one car with a locked boot and the other with one that wouldn’t lock….real useful. We had to replace the motor on the Megane….or I should say we wanted to just replace the motor but of course had […]
