Summer 2014

We joined a 6 week cookery class at Little Kitchen cookery school in Bristol. We learnt how to make scotch eggs with a gooey middle and pasta from scratch. I took the day off and we went to Slimbrdge to see the birds. We had curry and drinks with Alastair and Eira at Ganesha.

We went to Outcider festival with Nev and Charl, we drank, laughed and danced so much my muscles hurt all week! We turned up in Nev's convertible and weren't sure we'd get in, the festival billed itself as being for real people with no hipsters or tossers!

I took the day off and went to see the balloons at sunrise at the balloon fiesta with Paul, Ben, Irene and Buzz. 


Kathryn and Richard came over for a BBQ with Roger and Rachel. Dad had to finish the BBQ outside in the rain with an umbrella! Good old British BBQ!

The following weekend we went to Petrus for Dad's 60th birthday.


The food was amazing. 


Charlie and I went home the following weekend. We went to birmingham fruit market and there was some confusion about who was buying what, this is what came home....


.....after Dad had given away a dozen melons and a box of peaches to a local shop and given a homeless man some bananas! We juiced it and drank it with rum! We went to a bank holiday car boot sale and bought far too much rubbish including a vacuum cleaner with no wire and a tool to cut wood at any angle for Uncle Alan!
