Brixham Sailing Weekend

Tom and I went back to the UK for a few days, with the intention of going down to Brixham for a sailing weekend on Mum and Dad’s sailing boat, together with my sister Caroline and Polly, her daughter. We arrived on the Friday just in time for fish and chips in the town. Very nice. I miss that. So having unloaded our stuff on the boat, we headed into the town.

Brixham Harbour

The fish and chips were awesome. Sat outside the pub next door and at those with live music from a local guitarist to listen too; along with the seagulls. Slept well that night, even sharing with Tom. more »

Tom playing Piano at school concert

We all went to whats called ‘Tanzania Night’ at the school last night. It’s an event held annually to raise money for Tanzania schools that the school here has been doing for 20 years. Many of the students make groups, perform dances, sing etc and we all drink, eat and watch. So, Tom played piano with some of his grade 10 friends, playing a Red Hot Chili Peppers song. He’s very good.

Sailing

In the summer the boys went back to the UK for a couple of weeks. Mum and Dad took them off for a week to their boat moored in Brixham, and finally sent me a copy of the DVD they made from their trip along the south coast.

Seems like Tom and Jamie had a good time, weather looks fantastic and some of the scenery is amazing.

Anyhow, enjoy the video

Family Visit

Mum, Dad, my sister and her baby came to stay for a week. Was really nice to have them around. They took care of themselves mostly; the folks going to Prague for a couple of days whilst my sister stayed here. Went on lots of walks, to the lake, Kaiserswerth.
