How totally awesome.

ZenGum · 09-03-2011, 07:54 PM

Awwww.

Just going back a bit ... 70 quid of weed per week? Jebus. Or is weed really expensive over there?

Everything is expensive there. Except tea and bread and butter. And riots. It's like a fire sale on riots.

It's great to see the kids of your days Sundae.

Clodfobble · 09-04-2011, 03:07 PM

They are adorable, Sundae! I can see why you love your job.

As a side note, how is Tennant's mom doing?

Sundae · 09-05-2011, 11:21 AM

No bad news back at least.
I know she has a number of follow up appointments, but I assume they have all gone as hoped so far.

She's taking Tennant over to Lapland in December!
They weren't able to get away over the summer, so that's his special holiday.
He's never said anything about this Christmas-fixation at school, it might be a recent thing. I imagine it's because he's had such an unsettling year and Christmas last year was bright and happy and Mum didn't have cancer and Grandad was still alive and they weren't moving house.

Still, it made me laugh. Tiger is chatting away and he says he is going to be a builder just like Daddy. I'd heard that before. And J is going to be a fireman like his Daddy - which I already know - everyone in the school knows too!
"I'm going to be a builder and J is going to be a fireman and Tennant is going to be Father Christmas." Said in a very matter of fact tone.

Thank you for the pix of the kids. They are great! I was wondering about your day and had hoped you would post pictures and tell us about your day. It turns out you already did but I didn't go through enough threads to see everything that's happening.

Walking to school, Aylesbury to Bierton.
I took these knowing they would contrast.
We woke up to mist on Tuesday, but the weather reports said it would clear by mid-morning to give us a brief Indian summer.

So I knew it would be fine today. And so it was.
Roll on foggy November and crisp December I say.
And snow.
Snow, snow, snow-snow-snow.

Back to September.

Looking up Aylesbury Road.
Technically in Bierton (as Bierton Road is in Aylesbury). It makes sense, roads are named for their destination.
Tried to take them in the same place. Forgot that I had the camera vertical!

Tuesday morning.
Wednesday morning.

Sundae · 09-28-2011, 10:18 AM

A view acroos the fields on my way to work.
Tuesday then Wednesday.

Sundae · 09-28-2011, 10:19 AM

And then this afternoon, just for another contrast.

Fungus. I would never pick and cook wild mushrooms myself.
I'd love to go on a mushroom hunt with a real expert though.

I like them both. I'm always amazed at how narrow the roads are there.

Two more Tues & Weds shots.
See how the aliens leave their laser death ray in full view in the second photo!

Sundae · 09-28-2011, 10:37 AM

And now just some of the walk during the sunshine.
St James the Greater as posted before.
