Bank Holiday in South Wales and Blaise Castle

Olivia's first birthday

I can't believe that a year has gone by since Olivia was born. Today we had a first birthday bbq and I got roped into making the cake. Hayden made a 'number one' cake and I made the balloon cake. Needless to say what Hayden's cake looks like. This caused us great amusement. Its such a shame that we cannot remember our first birthdays. I once heard on the radio an article on how good it would be to live your life backwards...Livvy is as cute as ever (I'm not biased, see the pictures for yourself).

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside

Oh I do like to be beside the sea, oh I do like to stroll along the prom prom prom, when the brass band plays tiddly om pom pom.

Todays day trip was to Wookey Hole caves in Somerset (www.wookey.co.uk/ ). I have fond childhood memories of Wookey hole and have visted recently, however, it has now turned into a big child's playground. We joined a tour of the caves with more screaming children than adults. We went to the papermill to see hand made paper, the hall of mirrors, penny arcade and wall of mirrors which never fails to draw a smile.

The journey to Weston Super Mare took over an hour do to detours through some very nice English countryside, I do like spring. We promenaded, ate fish and chips on the front and walked on the pier.
