Back at school

A new term is here at last, Toby had an extra 2 days added on his holiday as the school building works weren't quite finished, even now they are surrounded by builders but apparently the disruption is minimal, but they would say that wouldn't they. So he is now in Year 1 and has a new uniform to go along with the new school name, so all change. I have seen a huge improvement in his reading skills already, I think there is more 'work' and less play this year, he seems to really enjoy it though, long may it last.

Toby and I spent our extra couple of days up with Nanny Jan and Grandad Brian, we fed the ducks and swans at the local park and Toby finally took a bit of interest in his bike which we took with us, pictures to follow.

We had a family day at Legoland which although we have been before was unusual as Kevin came too, and we tried new places we haven't found before, and discovered an adventure playground which Toby was in for over an hour, it was a great opportunity for a sit down and cup of tea! He also discovered the delights of a roller coaster, he's never wanted to try one on previous visits but Kevin tricked us as Toby and I thought it was a gentle ride through some lego dragons ... before we knew where we were, we were whizzing up an down at a rate of knots! He also earnt his first driving license at the driving school.
