Dogs and fireworks do not mix!

Some car with your frost sir?

This was what greeted me yesterday morning:






And there was more of the same this morning! You know it's cold when the trees have frost on them as well!


The view from my desk at work:


Brrr!

Mick and Liv

The first ice of the season!

It was a nice clear night last night, and here are the results!






Brrr!

Welcome to the UK Ben!

Lunch at The Greyhound with Ben to keep him awake on his first day in England.


Mick and Liv

Homeward bound!!

But we'll be back soon England!

St Pancras

Sitting on the Eurostar waiting to depart - happy campers!


Mick and Liv

Brussels here we come!

Reading Station, 4:54am. An early start to get to Kings Cross for the Eurostar, but the excitement of a weekend away helped get us up!

London Eye

Had a great day in London last weekend, with a ride on the eye, then a lazy lunch by the river.





A nice spot to watch the world go by!

125's

What a crackin' race! Thrilling to the end with it only decided in the second to last corner right in front of our stand. Fantastic.


And here's me:


Mick and Liv

Woohoo!

Well that was a buzz! Shame about Casey's start but he redeemed himself somewhat. Nice ride for Spies, shame that Hayden missed the podium as a result. And Lorenzo takes a win that looks like it could be a preview of the championship result. All around a great race.





Next, 125's!

Silverstone. Day Three

Race day! The view from our stand:





Moto2 warmup just closing. The noise! Sheesh! Last corner before the straight and they are on the throttle, and don't our ears know it!!

Mick and Liv

Silverstone. Day Two

Another great day at the track but very cold!





We made our way around the whole track over the course of the day just to check it all out. It's a HUGE circuit so that was a lot of walking!

Mick and Liv

Silverstone. Day one

The MotoGP weekend begins! Had good weather for the trip up and for motogp practice session:





Of course its kind of hard to make out anything in these photos, but at least it proves we are here!


And then just as that session came to a close, down came the drizzle just in time for Moto2 practice:





Gotta go; I'm missing the show!

Mick and Liv

Hey Sonny! This one's for you!

Mick and Liv

Blue bells

This one's for you Mum!



Blue bells galore!

News just in

Scientists have announced that they have finally identified what caused the demise of the dinosaurs. It seems that the English took to braising them with apple and cider and serving them with vegetables.

Dinosaurologists cite the following photograph as evidence:

Two dogs at the local

Hi all,

Sorry for the delay in updates. Still waiting for Internet at home. In the meantime, here's a couple of hounds at the local, The Two Poplars.








Hopefully full internet service will be restored later thus week, so stay tuned!

Dogs and house...

Well we now have two Aussie dogs in the heart of Berkshire. They seemed dazed and confused initially but now seem to be settling in. It's so nice to have them here. It now finally feels like we are back to 'normal'....especially as we are now in our own house! Woohoo!

I tried to take a few photos to show it off but it's a little bit difficult. Nevertheless, here is the kitchen:





And here's a shot of the lounge with our snazzy new tv!


Actually thats not a shot of the lounge. That's the corner of the lounge. Hmmm, ok. So you really can't see anything from these. I'll have to take some photos during the day when the light is a bit better.

But, all is well and we are loving the place. Dog photos to follow soon! :-)
