Strike 3
Doesn’t time fly? It hardly seems like yesterday when I made my first entrance into the world and now look at me, 3 years old and celebrating with my lovely family and friends.Â
One of my favourite films is Toy Story and I really wanted an RC with Woody and Buzz Lightyear. I wasn’t let down. It is a remote control car which I love zooming around the house.
In the afternoon we headed for the bowling lanes and met up with Taylor, Lydia and Eleanor as well as a few other hanger ons. It wasn’t long before I was demonstrating my bowling skills and on my 2nd go scored a STRIKE.
After bowling we cut the cake and boy what a cake. I don’t know if you’re familiar with the Numberjacks on CBeebees but mummy baked me Numberjack 3. It was great.
I stood on a chair to get a better picture of it. Well done Mummy.
I had lots of other exciting presents including an Iggle Piggle, an Iggle Piggle scooter, sticker Christmas story book, mega bloks, Bob the Builder Skip, a police uniform, Tractor and manure spreader, a hideaway tent, Charlie and Lola plate mats and much more besides for which I thank everyone very much.
Sadly, the weekend was also tinged with sadness because it was the last time that we’ll see Nic and Jon before they travel to Nepal in January.Â
We are going to miss them so much over the next 2 years or so but I’ll keep you posted on how they are doing. We’ve brought Skype and a VideoCam to help us stay in touch.
We had a lovely weekend with Nic and Jon and I even managed to get them to stop eating for a few moments to take me out for a nice walk to test my scooter out.
Â
I love you loads. Good luck. Isaac.

“It wasn’t me daddy, I promise”
“Isaac, have you seen my mallet? I left it on the table, you haven’t picked it up have you? Isaac. Where are you?”
“Isaac? What have you done?”
“I’m sorry Daddy, I didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t be angry but have you seen the kitchen yet?”
Oh well, the damage had been done, so I decided to muck in myself and rip out the door step. It was quite fun so I called a couple of my mates, Charlie and David, who joined in.
It is amazing what you find when you dig a few holes and knock down the odd wall. What do you know, a World War II jeep.
It had finally gone. That horrible, dirty, moldy thing that the estate agent had the audacity to call a conservatory had finally gone. So what next? There was only one thing to do … call in the boss.
Thus endeth week 1.
Yes dear reader, you’ve guessed what you’re in for over the next few months. The long awaited extension to our house has begun. As excited as we are, we will endeavour not to bore you too much and just post the occasional updates as the project progresses. I won’t tell you just yet what we have planned but you’re gonna like it, not a lot, but you’re gonna like it (help me, I’ve just quoted Paul Daniels).

Autumn Reflections
The other day Isaac and I went for a walk around Lenwade lakes as it was such a beautiful October afternoon.  I was particularly taken by this fantastic reflection across the fishing lake at The Bridge Pub.Â
Down by the river an angler was wading in the water
I managed to capture a couple of really interesting shots using the sun’s reflection
Â
Not everyone was happy though.
