June 2016

It has been a weekend of extremes. It all started very well with a steeplechase win on Friday night...

however I was upset when my food ran out and even worse, The Monster Under The Stairs (aka the vacuum cleaner) held the new bag hostage delaying the start of my camping trip. 

Wow - it was warm and sunny so we spent the whole day at Grafham Water exploring some of the lesser used tracks. 
Not sure what that big bird in the background is.

Look at this stick just waiting to be thrown in (my tennis ball accidentally got left behind but I made do)!

Lots of walking and swimming followed by even more walking and swimming was great fun. 


Erm - I can't really explain this one!

Why walk on the ground when the wall of the dam gives a far better view?


I went back to the campsite a very happy but tired boy where I had a lovely snuggle in my sleeping bag. Our little tent did a super job of keeping us dry and warm during a large rain / thunderstorm overnight so I was ready to go again in the morning. This time it was a trip to Priory Park before heading home (but not before another swim)!
