Riding back from the cricket on Sunday

 Flo's decided to join in with the cricket every other week so this week we all cycled to Leigh and back from Tonbridge.  It's a nice ride.



Secret Fathers Day

 After cricket in the morning April took me and the kids into London for a secret fathers day.  First we went to the sister restaurant of Fallow, Fowl.  Fallow was where we went for my birthday last year.  I follow the two chefs on youtube.  After that we went back to London Bridge and onto Sixes.  An indoor cricket batting simulator / bar.  I came 3rd out of the 4 of us.  Very disappointed...

Fowl.  Lots of chicken wings.





Friday's morning walk

 With it being so hot during the day, i've been taking the dog out n the morning.  It's lovely.

It took a while, but I finished it yesterday in time for Arthur getting home.

Red deer

 Spotted this on a big walk with Arwen earlier.  It was a few hundred meters away so apologies for the poor picture quality.  It's getting a bit warm again so don't like taking her out for too long at midday, but there's no other time for it today.  Maybe evening walks might be a better shout when it's hot.




Puzzle solved

 We solved a word puzzle in last night's game.  It was good fun.

More firepit cooking

 I cooked steak fajitas on Sunday evening, I also made oven chicken wings and padron peppers too.







Birthday present

 One of Arthur's friends gave him a racing car kit for his birthday (party last weekend).  I don't know what they were expecting a 6 year old to be able to do...  It's taken April and I 6 hours to part build it over the weekend.  We're now on bag 5/6.  It's pretty impressive, it has model engine in there with pistons that go up and down.  I googled how much it cost and was surprised that it was only £25 in BM.  If this was real lego it would have been £100+



Mmm Ramen

 I made ramon on Sunday for lunch.  I didn't make the actual stock so can't take full credit.  In fact, I forgot to cook the chicken to go with it.  The kids loved it though.




Village Cricket

A slight change of plan on Sunday morning, I took Arthur to his cricket and April too Flo her junior park run. It's a 25 minute cycle.
