Team Extreme!!!!

Today we went off to see a talented group called Team Extreme!! This day the kids and i had been looking forward to since we saw it advertised on t.v a couple of weeks ago. It was fab day the demonstration was only about 30 mins long, but we were all gripped by the amazing stunts these guys pulled off on there Bmx bikes, skateboards and in line skates.

After watching a few stunts and needing to be very quick of the mark while taking photos, i figured that it would be easier to use the video camera as they were so quick, so at least we could catch what they were doing. I have unforunatly not worked out how to put my own videos on here yet, so i'm unable to share the rest with you hopefully i will work it out soon though. We left here on a high and decided that as it was a nice day for a change we went off to a place called "The Strand" where the kids could play and i could rest with a nice cup of coffee. James and Sophie went of the little train ride they have there!

Sophie as per normal being the poser she is insisted that i took a couple of her just standing doing nothing. I think she is destined to be a model when she grows up who knows!! I hope she does i'd be ever so proud.

I also took just a couple of pictures of the Marina just across the river from where we were. I love this place and adore the view it has to offer, i have often just driven down to The Strand on my own just to sit on a bench and look across just to think, i call this place my perspective in life. It's a most serene and peaceful place (even when the weather isn't so good)

So after a nice stroll along the riverside we went of to Mcdonalds for Happy meals all round except for me i had Big Mac off course. I did enjoy it mind you i figured sod the diet, well for one day at least! Then off home to have a well needed bath because boy were they hot, sweaty and absolutly flithy from the playing in the Park and sand pit!!!
