Gary Earthshaker Newton,s 60th

We went up to Garys house in the Guime mountains to help him celebrate his 60th birthday. We all sat round the pool and had a slurp or three, and the kids were all in it, having a riot. We later listened to Lou Gramm and Foreigner at very loud volume. One thing Gary and I have, is a love of good music at volume 11. He has a superb pair of speakers, that are great for doing just that. Thanks to Jo for running round and looking after us all, making sure that we were all fed and watered. You can check a few pics I took by going in to my personal gallery.

Well at long last the weather here is starting to warm up. Been for a nice walk this morning [Sat 21st] and its clear blue skies and scorchio like it should be. It has been a bit dodgy weatherwise for the last three weeks. Believe it or not though, there has not been any where near enough rain here. We certainly have not had the normal spring downpour. My begonias are gasping. Arf arf
