Well we’ve managed to get most our photos but still missing a few (sorry Tori Centre Parcs are some of those missing) so we might do this is 2 parts sorry folks…..Now let me remember what we did in the UK….. apart from a false start with flights being cancelled due to typhoons in Hong Kong, we did manage to get the UK even if it was a day late and it was wonderful to get there and see everyone at last. The boys were really good travellers and would do it all again tomorrow if we could. We did an awful lot in those few weeks but here’s a few highlights…


Family Day out at Drucilla's Theme Park near Eastbourne, fab place.....

Another Family outing at LegoLand...a seriously cool place

Lots of lovely family days out with Grandma and Aunty Ann (Wisley Gardens), digging the spuds with Grandad and everyone at Beddington Park

Day out in London, including a picture of the pelican in Green Park that bit Thomas....that could only happen to Thomas!

Gorgeous Brighton with the gorgeous Jamieson's. This is where I managed to drop Mick and Tori's keys to their boat into the sea....thanks goodness for strong magnets eh Mick!

Paris............no children.........Paris........ahhhh it's was just perfect.....

Picture on the right is our hotel, it was the most amazing place to stay, right next to Notre Dame and in a wing of a working hospital, really good value and a brilliant place to stay if you're ever passing Paris.....

Lots of lovely nights out and brilliant to see old friends in cluding the lovely Mrs Plant - it was brilliant to see you again...

Kaz's 40th, a great day out for a "proper afternoon tea" at the Dorchester (right pic is of us in the toilets....well swanky!) and a great party, brilliant to see you all there........

I'm not sure but I think this lot are related to Frank O'Donnell .............

Homeward bound, we miss you all...........

Thanks to you all for such a wonderful time, wish we could do that every year, if only our pockets and our livers could stand it!

Rather sad note to end that the wonderful Dodge died a few weeks after we left, a great muscian and one of the last good guys - you won't be forgotten.
