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...

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.

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.
