All dressed up for the Bloxham School Founders' Ball: Mel, Robin, Gill, Rebecca, Dave, Catriona, Frans, Michelle, Philip and Robin having pre-dinner drinks at our place.
The Lads sampling the watermelon daiquiris - thanks, Gill!
Dave, Mel and Catriona.
Frans and the Hectors, Benj and Amy, who made a welcome return to Bloxham this week for the cricket season.
Robin T, Rebecca, Robin H and Dave.
Frans enjoying his lobster: "You don't ask, you don't get!"
Thanks, Fields, for joining us for lunch at Wagamama in Kingston yesterday after our London rusk delivery. We are slowly working our way through the menu and the chilli and tamarind pavlova proved to be a huge hit!
Thanks to everyone for the birthday calls, cards and gifts for Anna (26th) and me (27th). Despite Anna developing chicken pox on the eve of her big day (!), all went swimmingly and we both had fun celebrating.
Who says it's too cool to camp in April? Not if you dress up all warm and snug!
Throwing stones into the stream running through Newton Mill campsite (best bathrooms ever and apparently proud recipient of the "prestigious 5-star Loo of the Year award"!!)
Philip testing out his new bucket braai (and no need to mention it's pink, lads).
Pulteney Bridge crossing the River Avon.
Royal Crescent in elegant Bath.
From the culinary sublime to the ridiculous: Ben slurping down his noodles at Wagamama (missed you, Adlards :) and finally caving in and letting him experience "Old McDonalds" and a dreaded "Happy Meal". Mom had a not-so-happy meal, but lived to blog again...
Just in case you hadn't seen enough photos of the UK's most recent snowfall (Sunday 6 April), we thought we'd throw a few more into the mix. We spent a great morning sledging on Hobb Hill above Bloxham, but Spring, hurry up already...
Ben trekking up Stonehill.
On our way up Hobb Hill, with a very white Bloxham village in the background.
A herd of bemused locals looks on.
Snowball fight!!
