Beamish

Yesterday we went back in time to 1913 at Beamish Museum.  I dont think I've been there for 20 years and its the first time for everyone else. Despite the threat of rain it stayed warm & windy and a good time was had by all.  See the pictures here.

London Calling

Maxine and I managed to get the weekend in the heart of London and had a fantastic time shopping, eating and generally chilling in the sunshine. We did manage to squeeze in some culture (Churchills War Museum and Banqueting Hall) but it was great to stay off the tube and do loads of exploring. London is looking great ahead of the Olympics, wish we were staying longer to actually go. Posted a few of the many pics here !

Leicestershire Visit

All had a great few days down with Maxines family in Leicestershire. Ethan had his Birthday early with loads of Lego and they did a few days out at the Leicester Space Science Centre & Twycross Zoo. On the way up we also visited Leeds Armouries, so its been a tiring few days.  See some of the pics here.

Singapore Visit

Just got into the UK after 3 days staying at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore. We managed to go all that way and meet up with our neighbours & friends (just finishing a 10 day holiday in Singapore) ! All the pictures from the day are here.  Thanks to Darren & Tanya for the BBQ on the last day, great to see you all again.  Off to the rainy UK next for work & a bit of holiday but should be fun.
