Windsor

We were in Windsor at the weekend celebrating our first wedding anniversary.

We visited the castle as you would expect. It was actually very good. You can see the official information here >>

Claire was sharing the audio tour with the little one - never too early to start the education?

A view of the castle on the way up to state rooms and the dolls house.

We ordered a luxury room and we definately got more than the normal hotel room. To start with we had our own garden which was overlooking the river. Here are some shots.

To the left
From our balcany - this is the main bridge. On the other side of the water is Eaton. We went to the school. And then walked back !

You can see the hotels site here>>

We ate at the Stroks restaurant, it was very good. We would recemend you make a visit.

Monkey transport

In preparation of Project Monkey's arrival we have gone out and bought his/her their own chariot.

We have gone for a Scenic ! I know you may think a family option. I have been practising my excuses of why this is still sporty and cool !

Its more powerful than my old golf!
It doesnt need a key! to open or to start the engine.
To start / stop the engine there is a button!
Alloy wheels and electric everything inc AC.
Automatic lights and wipers etc.
Front fogs and wingmirrors that fold in at the touch of a button.
And if you walk away, it closes all the windows, roof and locks itself !
Almost cool?
Plus the wife like it.

We get in this Saturday and then can drive round - I will work on my cool line. :-)

Baby Land at 21 weeks

This morning we went to the West Middlesex for our 21 week scan.

Here are some of the photos. Once again they never do the scan justice. I just wish we could get a copy of the screen in video it is some much more detailed.

We were amazed at how much attention and detail they went through. They looked at everything from parts of the brain down to a full examination of the heart and everything in between.

It is all GOOD.

Onto the photos....

A split picture - both feet

A close up of the head, with left hand in the background.

An overview shot. Crown to Rump was 17cm.

And a scary shot! I have rotated this picture as BabyLand is looking straight at you!!!!

Wimbledon

Last week we went to Wimbledon. The morning was good. We saw the whole of the Hewitt game, drank beer, ate overpriced fish'n'chips and watched some tennis.


Then after lunch - it rained and it rained hard. Here is the view from the top of centre court.


Some defiant people sat out with umbrellas hoping for a break in the rain.

Next big gadget to come to the UK!

Apple Computer announced today that it has developed a computer chip that can store and play music in women's breast implants.

The iBoob will cost between £499 and £599.

This is considered to be a major breakthrough because women are always complaining about men just staring at their breasts and not listening to them!
