Amelia Poppy and Oliver James Steele

The jelly monster – note to self….video in landscape mode

I find it a bit of a nightmare to get Amelia’s hair looking in a decent enough state so that all the Mums at school don’t point at her and laugh. I was particularly proud of this mornings effort.

We went on the East Lancashire Railway steam day extravaganza. They had a points failure which meant we were sitting on a train that didn’t move for 20 minutes. All in all I found it to be a pretty accurate reproduction of how trains operate today.

Daddy, Amelia and Oliver went off to watch Nana Pat play hockey at Lymm. But the pitch was frozen and the game cancelled. So Oliver and Amelia played in the “jail” instead…or should that be “gaol” ho ho ho

Mummy had some work to do so Amelia, Oliver and Daddy went for a drive over to B&Q to buy some paint. Oliver also got a tape measure that he’s obsessed with…current whereabouts of the tape measure unknown!
