Squirrel Hunting
A nice crisp Autumn morning which brings the urge to help the little locals of Nothe Gardens gather there food for the winter.
Waiting VERY patiently for the little furry fellows to arrive.
No squirrels but there was a lovely tit to admire!
Finally the circus squirrels turned up and climbed and sat everywhere even on Oliver's shoulder.

Goodbye Buckley
He was the best dog a family could have and was loved by everyone, he was gentle and loyal and we will miss him dearly. He was only 2 but had an eventful life and enjoyed being part of our family. Where ever you are, we hope you are sniffing, chasing and wagging your tail, bye bye lots of cuddles, your family.

Archery - Hammond Style
After being given a free archery day last year as part of the school summer fete prizes, we eventually found time to take this offer up. The weather was fine the wind was low, perfect flight for arrows!
The next Robin Hood! or friar tuck
Not bad just like to point out all the centre arrows are mine!
Stuffed animals to shoot as well, this one stood no chance - vulture for Sunday roast.
Who thought it would be a good idea to let females loose with a bow & arrow.
Last event was balloons - Bethany was allowed to move closer !

Hammonds in Bath
I guess when you read the post heading, you could feel worried of the pictures you might see, but as you will see it is all harmless. We took a trip on the train to Bath to see our friend Kate and her little Mabel & Reggie and to do a quick explore of Bath town centre.
First stop was of course..... Lunch by the crescent, we needed to fuel up with all the walking required.
Rebecca & Mabel, girls about town.
Bethany started something!
Reggie on his way to help.
Girls adding to mound.
Oliver wondering wear Jacob is... probably under the mound!
The best spinning plate roundabout ever... for kids but the worst nightmare for parents, kids flying off everywhere!

Summer heatwave
With all this sun and heat, we needed somewhere to cool off, and where else to go but the natural resource of the planet, the sea!
Jacob practising his future as a Weymouth lifeguard.
Rebecca trying to entice the the Buckley in to the water, now you see him.
Now you don't!
Oliver and Bethany cooling down.

What a start to the day!
The time 6:30 am ready for work as usual, all ready to cycle to work just need to unlock the door, which is very difficult to achieve when your key breaks in the lock. So the only thing left to do is use a chisel and hammer and take the lock out the door, as you can tell from the picture not to much anger was required, I highly recommend it first thing in the morning. All that is needed is a new door!

Last game of the season and all we needed was for Tottenham to win and Arsenal to lose then European football was to be the prize. Thankfully to the Spurs Wish Charity this day was made special by the dream of being provided 8 tickets and an executive box.
This was my first visit to White Hart lane and a dream come true for the family.
With several sat nav's on the go, how could we go wrong! well quite easy when one is telling you turn left and the other is telling you to turn right, needless to say we ended up going through London city centre, being the lead car I managed to lose the following car. Eventually we came across White Hart Lane and was very kindly met by the stewards, who parked the car, then the reception staff who escorted us to our executive box and introduced to Hannah the box assistant who saw to our food and drink needs.
The famous Cockerel statue
The Cockerel mascot 'Chirpy'
News pundits for the day.
Waiting for the goals!!!
Finally a moment of inspiration from the great Gareth Bale.
