Go Karts with Daniel

For Daniel's 11th (how have those years gone so fast?!) birthday party this year he took some friends go-karting.  A great time was had by all.  I did the "responsible adult" thing, and kept an eye from the side-lines.  It was most people's first time ina petrol kart, and I was quite relieved when they all exited the pits and made it round the first lap!
Daniel is keen to have another go.  Mariokarts will never be the same again......!

They seem so grown up!

World of Adventures

Went to Chessington a couple of weeks back with Zoe. As it was an inset day, the queues were very small, so we went on pretty much every ride. I have to say that I didn't realise that the rides all span round and round quite as much as they do. A queasy day for me, but a good one.

50 feels like a big number

We had some friends over to celebrate my 50th a few weeks back.  It was great to catch up with a few faces that we had't seen for a while.
Zoe had made some birthday cup-cakes at Elayne's which were very tasty, and looked fab.....

In my defence - it was quite late :-)

I was quite tired by the end!......
