Medium rare burger

 Popped to my local for lunch and the it's fairly quiet. A posh family arrived and one of them has asked for a medium rare burger...

The hilarity with the locals is pretty funny.  I'm going to wait to see how this works out.


Albino squirrel

 Dropped the kids off at their child care play group this morning (they're back to school on Tuesday) and we spotted an albino squirrel.  Apparently they've seen him before, I guess he's fairly popular with the kids.





Quick time

 We did this from start to finish in around 1h30 last night.  That's not bad going.

We've reached lvl 20!

 We reached level 20 after last night's session at the games cafe.  My monk now had an AC of 27!

Got the contract

 Finally got the contract extension through, there wasn't really a choice between extending and joining the other firm.  Not everything comes down to money, but for doing virtually the same work i'm getting paid an additional £42,500 over 6 months, plus I only have to go into the office once a week rather than the mandated 4 in the new place.

Chicken pot pie

 I made this earlier, a delicious chicken pot pie.  Flo helped with the chopping, Arthur helped with some of the pastry.

Teaching Arthur poker

 This is his poker face



Last meal

 This was the poshest of the lot, but the kids mostly behaved.







Another win at gold for me

Leisurely Thursday.  We had a little walk along the beach on Thursday, watched a big log get moved from the sea defence before a spot of crazy golf, followed by some ice cream








Back to the beech on Wednesday afternoon

 A bit chilly for me, but the kids had their wetsuits and had fun jumping in the waves.
