The Big Four-0

Well I made it and it was a great weekend of celebration. I loved catching up with old friends although I was a little concerned by how many of my former youth group now have kids..suppose that's a hazard of aging. One of the highlights without doubt was the newest boyband in North London doing a Snow Patrol cover version - check them out below they do warm up!


There's a few photos on my flickr site here. Apparently life now begins so here we go...

Spent bank holiday weekend destroying an air raid shelter in our garden. It was designed to be bombproof and put up a great fight. We had some good father son bonding times with sledge hammers and pick axes. We also made a new friend in as a robin enjoyed the rich pickings we were unearthing. He became increasingly tame over the weekend to the point where he took food from our hands you can see him flying in from the right if you look carefully.
