This week I have been mostly

 Making pickled onions.  My Dad's been doing it for years, much to his neighbours amusement when he's out by his garage peeling onions with his swimming goggles on!  Who needs goggles when you have a small child?

Bonus day

 It's bonus announcement day today so the office is as busy as i've seen it.  I was due to get told how much mine is 5 minutes ago but the numbers haven't been released yet so my meeting's been postponed!  FFS!

Being a contractor for the past 4/5 years means I don't get bonuses any more but i'm currently on a ftc so am technically employed by the company.  I just have a hard end date.

Strange modern art

These strange pieces of art greeted me this morning on the way into work.  

A bit sooky

 Arwen's fine although she does seem more sooky.  One of our friends lent us their soft cone of shame but she's still not pleased with it.  It's only for a week.

Poor Arwen

 Arwen has somehow injured herself on a dog walk, I didn't hear her squeal at any point so not sure when it actually happened, but she's got an inch or so long cut just above her left shoulder.  It seemed to be healing last week so we ignored it but she's since been licking it so keeps opening up.

I took her to the vet this morning and unfortunately for her is now sporting a cone of shame.

April's out with the car so I had to walk her all the way back through the high street. Very embarrassing. She got a picks ear from the pet shop on the way back so she was happy.

Birthday pizzas

 Bought bases with tomato sauce, then make your own toppings

Flo and Arthur's half and half

April's pear, blue cheese and honey

My, a bit of everything

April's birthday meal

 A bunch of the Tonbridge lot went out for drinks and burgers for April's birthday.

Mothers day

 Last Sunday was mothers day.  It coincided with April's birthday on Saturday.  So it was basically April weekend!  I did drag April to wet rugby training in the morning though and I also got out to watch the football late afternoon, so she didn't get it all her way.

Arthur getting brain freeze 

Funny faces with Flo

Arthur was really good at eating in Havet

Pancakes and syrupy bacon for breakfast

A very wet walk

 We got soaked this morning.  Non stop rain.  Urgh.  I still did a good 11k steps though.

Walk around the lake

Draining the Medway for a clean

Beautiful day

 Although still a little fresh, it was a beautiful walk this morning.  Another long one, this time only 14k steps.  I didn't really need my coat and ended up taking it off and carrying for most of the way.  Won't be long before i'm out and about in shorts, showing the world how pasty white my legs are.
