A grand day out.....

The weather has finally turned. This morning the back garden got strimmed and a huge pile of firewood was processed.

The afternoon we went for a walk along the bottom of the valley to the errrr pub. There I discovered we had enough for a drink for everyone, with 10 p change. Then it was back the same way to the car a walk through, what I'm sure you will agree is lovely countryside.

The weather is nice but the evening are still in the realm of chill though. The fire is going well the living room is warm and by banning Taliesin we are in a house that's warm enough without actually melting anything. He is a bit of a reptile and left in charge, his record for temperature in the living room this WINTER was 38c! Which was pretty good as the temp outside that night was about -6.

Today he had a good day, he is 18 next week and as a treat his boss had booked him a flying lesson as a surprise. So off he went today thinking he was going to price up a job, 30 minutes later he was at 5000 feet flying over the house at 100 MPH!!!

For much of that time Taliesin was flying the plane himself. 

He is pretty chuffed and who would not be at 18?

We are changing his name to Biggles and i definately not mentioning that the government will shortly have a load of Harrier jump jets for sale.....
