Pensthorpe Waterfowl Park

Yesterday I went to Pensthorpe Waterfowl Park near Fakenham.  It was a beautiful sunny day and we were the first people there so we could enjoy walking around the lakes listening to all the birds.  I have never seen so many different kinds of birds, ducks, geese, cranes etc.  I even saw a water vole pop his head over the side of a little bridge to say hello.  I would thoroughly recommend that you take a trip to Pensthorpe over the summer.  Click onto this link to find out more http://www.pensthorpe.com/

Here are a few pictures of us at Pensthorpe to whet your appetite.

Uncle James comes to stay

Last week Daddy and I took Uncle James back to Norwich airport to catch an aeroplane back to his house (well Exeter airport actually). James’ bag was put onto a machine called a conveyor belt which suddenly started moving and took it away. The lady asked me if I wanted to get on the machine as well to which I replied, “do I look stupid to you love?”. I hope he didn’t need any of those things in the bag because I doubt he’ll ever see any of them again.

Uncle James stayed with us in our house for what seemed like, well … forever really. It was the first time that he had come to stay with us. Here is a picture of me with James. Coming to think of it he looks rather happy to be leaving.

It’s thanks to James that I have my blog in the first place. If you go back to the very first entry on thebathtimeblog you can see that the blog was James’ birthday present to me. It took me a little while to get the hang of it but as you can see I’ve got it pretty sussed now. One of the best things about Uncle James coming to stay were his DVD’s – he introduced me to Camberwick Green and Trumpton which, despite their somewhat antiquated appearance, were great. I liked Windy Miller the best, though how he never got his head chopped off by the windmill sails I’ll never know (certainly a situation for the Health and Safety Executive to investigate). Apparantly, Mummy and Daddy also enjoyed James’ DVD’s, particularly The Music Man, though I couldn’t help sensing a touch of sarcasm in Daddy’s voice.
