Induction Day

Today Emily had her induction day at Sackville School. This is preparing them for going into Sackville in September. I can't believe she is leaving Primary School and moving up to Senior School! This is the final stretch of school days for us as Emily is our "baby". She had a good day and got to meet her new classmates. Three of her friends from Primary School are in the same class as her which makes the move a bit easier. They took part in four lessons today - History, which is Emily's favourite subject, ICT, French and Science. Two and a half weeks till summer holidays and then Sackville here she comes.

I am a happy bunny again as I got my new printer today. A tub of paper clips fell on top of my old computer and some went inside the machine. We think a couple got jammed in the cogs and after a fair amount of effort to get them out, without any success, Jon decided we should call it a day and order a new one. I've gone for another Canon as I was very happy with my last one but this time have the Pixma iP 4500 as the iP 5000 is no longer produced. I've done a few trial prints and all is well.

Happy 4th of July to all in America.

Have a good weekend - we have Monday off as well as Emily has an inset day! Yippee :)

Race For Life

I am so proud of Emily, today she completed the 5km Race For Life for Cancer Research UK. It was held at the Ardingly Show Grounds and there were over 2000 women taking part. Emily walked the 5kms with her friends Emily and Fleur and Emily's Mum, Kayley. Congratulations to all of you for completing it in 59 minutes, I think you did incredibly well.

Having been there taking photos I think next year I'll have to take part as well. There was a fantastic atmosphere and such a sense of achievement as everyone finished. It was also very moving to read the names of friends and loved ones affected by cancer on the backs of those taking part. What a worthwhile cause to walk for.

The girls are excited and looking forward to doing the walk

Morning after the night before ;o)

A few photos I took of Hugh when he got up today. I don't think he was really in the mood for having his photos taken but he was a good sport! Thanks Hugh!!

I was playing with the white balance settings on these ones but I haven't got it quite right yet, guess I'll have to keep trying!
