AL GOES HOME

Time to head back to Bournemouth for a weekend

of my Mother's 80th birthday 

and to watch the mighty AFC Bournemouth

attempt to make the premiership for the first time.

Came over on condor ferries which was great as 

far as the St Malo - Guernsey leg went, then after

a good lunch at Le Nautique in St Peter Port,

it all went downhill.

The connecting ferry was 2 1/2 hours late. Then the

journey from hell continued by being sat next to

Mr seasick for 3 hours all the way home.

The ship suffered water shortages, power failures, and all sorts.

Saturday I went to the footie and Bournemouth

drew with Sheffield Wednesday 2-2.

Sunday was both Mum and Bob's birthday, so we went up with their friends to The Cumberland overlooking the beach 

for a fine lunch and celebration.

Then back home for some champagne and cake.

AROUND THE VILLAGE ON A SUNDAY

Took a few pictures around the village whilst

out to get the bread last week,

We are having a really good spell

of weather right now.

Long may it continue.

54 AND STILL CHILDISH

Twas my 54th on Sunday, so a select

few came up to the village bar for a drink or ten.

The mobile pizza wagon pulls up outside the bar

on Sunday's so we all had pizzas as well.

along with a cake that Marie made,

depicting me celebrating another

Bournemouth win.
