Things That Gladden The Heart

[Hobbit]

I’ve just bought the Woodfire but it didn’t come with the free stand and cover as mentioned on the website. One email to customer services yesterday evening and they’ve already shipped the items for me

I’m hoping for a wood fridge. It’s 9pm here, and 31*

Lovely couple of days celebrating eldests 7th birthday

Yesterday she wanted a craft evening at home with some of her girl mates. That was interesting lol

Today she took 2 friends to rock up which is an assisted climbing thing near us. She's never been but by end was doing well

How the time flies

Now time to start 6 nights for a well earned break



Must make sure Ive got all the wife's birthday stuff sorted. 2 days apart who planned that!

Something she has always wanted to do , although she prob won't rush back she had fun. Was pretty cool. I should have gone in myself for a laugh

Go Ape is good fun if you’ve got one local.
The kids one is also suitable for adults.
If your daughter wasn’t too sure about the wall,might be best to give it a couple of year tho.

Once the twins are a bit older (will be 4 in the summer) I can see them going on it together, the youngest twin is fearless and the other one climbs anything furniture wise

Life's little coincidences - 2 in the last 2 days:

The first - drove up to see Dad in the care home yesterday, taking my sister with me. As we set off, I asked her to make sure I don't forget that I've got £100 in my pocket to top up his wallet in the care home safe. 10 seconds later my phone beeps with an incoming email from the care home administrator asking me to add some cash to Dad's wallet as it's running low.

The second - while driving up the A1 with my sister yesterday, she asked me if I've ever heard the word "IDEATE". I had not. While listening to an audiobook today the word ideate was used twice.

If I believed that my phone or laptop or Alexa was spying on me and these things had been IT related they would "prove" the conspiracy. As they weren't, they demonstrate that life is full of these little coincidences.

Aha. I've only seen it about 17 times but wouldn't have got that without googling it.

I’m singing this in my Community Choir concert tomorrow evening…and I love it. It is magic and thrilling to sing in four part harmony. The video is splendid also…tempered with a sadness seeing the Twin Towers.

The England game.. not the performance, result or anything like that. Just got the kids ready for bed early and kept them up to watch it with me whilst the wife is out at dinner.

Eldest got into it on and off

The twins not so much but the pens they enjoyed, youngest even predicted the save my little psychic
