Happy Birthday Daddy

Today was my Daddy’s birthday though he wouldn’t tell me how old he is – I imagine therefore that he is very old indeed.  Still he does OK considering.

Daddy got lots of cards and mummy baked him a cake, although it turned out that she brought it from the cake shop around the corner and just added the icing.  Good thinking mum – next time though remember to take the label off the clingfilm.

Still I do love a bit of cake, don’t you? Yeh, a bit of cake, lovely, CAKE, yeh cake, CAKE

ooh, lovely cake …

Move over Valentino Rossi

A reprieve in the recent rainfall has enabled me to get out on my motorbike that my cousin Joel kindly donated to me (though I’m not sure whether he is aware of his generosity). 

I’m quite a nifty rider and I’m confident that it won’t be long before I’m sitting alongside Valentino Rossi on the front row of the grid.

Then again, a little more practice on those turns might not go amiss.

Farewell, adieu, auf wiedersehen, goodbye

Yesterday marked a very sad occasion for me.  For the past 2 years I have been looked after on a Monday by Lois, but sadly Lois and her family are moving away from Norwich.  However, the main reason why I can no longer go to see Lois is because she will soon be having another baby and she is getting rather large (too many doughnuts me thinks).  I will miss Lois, Caitlin and Eloise very much and thank them for playing with me these past couple of years.  I have had a really fun time.

Here we are on my final day with the girls.

To say thank you I bought Lois a willow tree character with ‘miss you’ written on it.

Thanks again Lois.  All my love, Isaac x x x.

Camping at Saxmundham

Last weekend I went camping with my cousin Eleanor. We had a great time despite the heavy rain and gale force winds that soaked our tent (I’ve had enough of flooding thank you very much) and lifted the gazebo out of the ground.

We went to Fritton Lake which was deserted. It seemed that they had opened just for us. It is a lovely place with lots of things to do so please visit before it closes down.

There was a huge inflatable pillow which we had a great time bouncing on.

It seems that mummy and daddy had a good time as well

After jumping up and down for so long it was time to exercise the grey matter and do some serious strategic thinking. Here I am just about to move Queen to C4 in a manouvre that was to cripple my opponent and eventually help me wipe the floor with Eleanor.  The tense atmosphere could be touched.

When I woke up the following morning, I was surprised to discover that Nick and Jon had pitched their tent next to ours. After a leisurely morning, we headed off to Southwold and spent the afternoon on the beach where the adults lazed about talking and talking whilst Eleanor and I got on with the serious business of making sandcastles.

It was a lovely day and fortunately the big black dirty cloud that hovered over the sea didn’t make its way over to us (for a change).

The following day we went to the lovely picturesque village of Walberswick, which is the setting for one of my daddy’s favourite books/films called The Bridge.

Once again the adults lazed around in the sunshine chattering away about I don’t know what.

Anybody would think they had lots to talk about. Will somebody please push me?

Champagne Murder

BREAKING NEWS On Saturday evening Brian Sewer, aka Uncle Lewis was arrested for the murder of Lord Michael Jagged at his mansion. Paparazzi flocked to the mansion and took the following pictures.

Brian sewer hangs his head in shame as his guilt is disclosed by the police. Throughout the evening the finger of suspicion was pointed at Babs Crayfish below, who, together with her lover, Champagne Charlie Bunsen was number one suspect for many of the other guests.

The gathering was to celebrate the **th birthday of the sultry Kitty Fisher, aka Auntie Denise. By the looks of this picture, the 1960s drug scene was in full evidence on the night.

Terence Shrimp and Mary Jane Faithless (aka Uncle Kevin and Auntie Sarah) looked fantastic as did Oliver Steed and Wiggy, better known as mummy and daddy.

I must admit, they don’t look at all bad

A fun evening was had by everyone, excepting Lord Michael Jagged, and me of course considering I was tucked up in bed.
