Play my bongos in the dirt







More views of where we have been this last week, it has been great. Though trampoline cat was flagging in the heat, everyone is bearing up well. The little one was keen to see all the little ducks, but was a bit anxious about being eaten by a goose, but seemed to find comfort in barking at them.

Going down to Frisco to joina psychedelic band








The sun has finally appeared, and we have made the most of the lovely weather by going to the pub, amongst other places.

Alarming to see first born emerging as this huge grown up looking person, pater with the wild artist hair, and mother looking very elderly, though her wardrobe has improved recently.

We also had a lovely afternoon looking at ducks and making daisy chains, though first born was very fed up as her holiday doesn't start till next week, so for some of these she was locked away in the classroom, whilst we were out having fun. Hard times.

Or rather life had me



Deep in the city spring is still bursting out, student flats are being built, and existing rabbit hutch type accomodation looks rather through the looking glass. The grass was alive with daisies and the new leaves are bright against the old brick of the gallery.

I once had a life

We are embracing metropolitan life at the moment. Back to Whitworth Park and gallery for the second time in a month, this time to enjoy the rather excellent playground, all our favourite bits and none of the crowds. Then we were recruited to do some painting for designs to decorate a bus which will be touring the city. Then a little bit of art. Good day out.
