Toothless Charlie!

Charlie’s first top front tooth has come out!

he is wavering on belief in the Tooth Fairy – seems to be happy to accept it for tonight.

All the kids go in fancy dress and will have a packed lunch/picnic on the field.
Charlie’s costume is homemade by his Mum with support from his Dad.

The Windmill

Tardis!

Pam and Arthur took Charlie to Scarborough and stayed overnight at the fantastic Windmill Hotel.  Beyond the fantastic Windmill itself it also houses a vast collection of Toys from the 1960’s and on. I recognised some of my faves (Thunderbirds, Batman) along with tons of other cult classics (Super heroes, Star Wars).

I joined them for the first day and then brought Tinker home.

Ages ago, we said we would plant an apple tree in our garden, for Granny Pam.  Pending the new veg garden, we weren’t sure where it would go but now that is all sorted, it was time to get it done.

So, here is the evidence – Granny Pam, ably assisted by Charlie, planting her tree. But not any old tree, it is a 3-apple tree. There are Gala and Sunset dessert apples AND Bountiful cooking apples all grafted onto one dwarf tree. Not sure how long before any of it will bear fruit, but we shall offer the first harvest to GP to make pie !

At the same time, we planted a dwarf dessert cherry nearby.
