Hi ya I know this is mega cheeky but WIlliam entered a competition and has got through to the public online vote section. I really hate these as we don't know enough people and I know we are never going to get the most votes but I would like him to get as many as possible as he is so excited when he...

This is quite an old post. You can try the one stop formerly known as herbies on lifstan way opposite the play area of southchurch park

Gosh - it's been hot! William had cross-country try outs today - we are so proud of him - he came 11th out of the boys in his year (about 55) - we are gobsmacked at how brilliant that is - he has become so sporty in the past year and this proves it :) We have roald dahl day on Friday - did lots of p...

Well... they've been at week at school and it is already like they never stopped for 6 weeks.

Not long till half term....... already looking forward to it as miss them loads!

There are two troops in our group and the Monday troop is ran by the same leaders as the cubs and on the same night as cubs and so all the children obviously choose to go to the Monday troop meaning that we haven't been getting many come up and our numbers have dwindled as our older scouts have left...

Hi Kris and everyone else My two are very excited about going back to school. William into year 5 and James into year 1. I can't believe we are back to school already - I had planned to do loads in the holiday and only really done half of it (and haven't even picked up books or pencils!) I am no lon...

Hi ya

Where abouts are you and what sort of level of swimming is your 9 year old?

Hi ya

Yep - hard to believe May already and only 9.5 weeks until the Summer Holidays. Crazy, crazy, crazy!

We are all good. Boys keep growing and looking very grown up.

We were in London on Saturday too - but we trained it in as did touristy stuff - The Orbit and Elizabeth Park, The Emirates cable car, Nissan Innovation at the o2 and then the Emirates experience, Waterloo and City line (just 2 more underground lines to go), The lOndon Eye and dinner at STrada! :) W...

At tennis at the mo - boys are loving their tennis.

Went to Rome over Easter - boys loved it and it's Williams birthday on Thursday! Oh - Leanne isn't it your boys birthday on Thursday too?

still no baby - she is coping because she has to but she is desperate to meet baby. Her induction date is Saturday so we are all hoping he decides to come before then!

We are here James has had croup and tonsilitis all weekend so not been an easy one. We had to make a rocket out of a drinks bottle for school science week and he enjoyed that. We are going in on Wednesday to see it get launched so should be fun and then I have William's 'Learning conversation' (pare...

Soooo tired! Had our London Selfie Tour camp this weekend with the Scouts! Drove to Dulwich on Friday (Scouts still up at 2:30 ggggrrrrr) got up and went to London, Took in the sights, Big Ben, Tower of London, SHard, ST Pauls, Millennium bridge, Globe, Tate Modern, Skate board park, Oxo tower, Lond...

Thanks Louise - yes - we are staying right next to the Roman Forum. Have also read up about an open top bus ride tour which is supposed to be fab and know the boys will enjoy. I am really hoping that James is fully toilet trained by then! He is doing so well tho and this week he agreed to use the to...

I am going on the Wednesday I think? The 15th. We are in the second row right in the middle! I can't believe that this time next week - the boys will be on their half term holiday already! Scary - how quick the term is flying! And then the half term until Easter is mega short - only another 4 weeks ...
