My trip to Wales - August 2020

 Here is a little video of the photos and videos I took of my recent trip to visit Jean in Knighton.  I took her to the Red Kit feeding centre before we went on our trip to Criccieth (on the North Wales coast).  We stayed in Criccieth at the Caerwylan Hotel right on the seafront - we arrived on the Tuesday afternoon right in the middle of a cyclone - with winds up to 75mph, I thought we were going to end up in the sea!   The weather cleared the next day but it was overcast and rainy again on Thursday.  We came back to Knighton on Friday morning and I went back to Norwich early on Saturday morning (it was a 4 hour drive back this time - made good time).   It was lovely, I really enjoyed this mini-break.  Did about 785 miles altogether in a lovely new Ford Fiesta (rental through Enterprise) - it was a great little car and very economical and comfy.    Anyway, here's the video that's been loaded to YouTube.

 I stitched together some of the images and videos that I had from my phone ... this is the result:

We've been lucky to have princess for many visits this year - most of them for a couple of nights in a row.  These are some photos from this weekend's visit.  

The mark on her face is from Faye's make-up (as you do) ... this is a dress-up outfit I made her, bit long but will be great for when it gets a bit chillier (too hot these days - yeah, 36 degrees who knew)

 We've been lucky to have princess visit us many times this year.  these are some photos and videos from this weekend ...

 

Ewan's primary school drive-thru graduation. 11th birthday and modelling High School clothes

This year has been super-weird for all of us - not least for the kids at school.   Ewan and Faye were home schooling - Ewan ended up going two days a week and Faye once a week.  Ridiculous times.  Ewan didn't have the standard school leaving party, this time it was a drive-thru event, which ended up being quite emotional.

stuff

 Haven't posted on here in yonks.. Not like nothings happening, on the contrary its hard to keep up. So much of our news, videos and photos are on WhatsApp, Facebook or Instagram.. Blogger is kinda getting left behind and the main reason for that is it is not mobile friendly.   I'm toying with the idea of moving this to WordPress...
