Saints warming up as the stadium fills

This photo makes it look like the view wasn't too brilliant. We were at the back of the top tier, but we were a lot closer than it appears here. The stadium isn't huge, and we actually had an excellent view. Saints would go on to beat Hull Kingston Rovers 50 points to nil! B-)

Denise kitted up and ready for the big game

The Woodman Inn

This was our base for the Semi-Final Weekend. Nice food, good beer (real ale!) and excellent service. The bathroom could have done with a little bit of refurbishment, but nothing really to complain of.
Denise's bike (Kawasaki ZZR-600) is in the foreground, with mine just behind it.

The art of travelling light


This is my bike's little top-box full up for our weekend away in Huddersfield for the Challenge Cup semi-final.

Lily

Absolutely beautiful lily. This is in a pot near our back door. It's actually got two flowers now, but I thought I'd take this close-up, to show the detail on the petals.The scent's fantastic. A-choo!

Mike on holiday


Mike was foolish enough to send us a photo of himself on holiday, having a better time than us here at work. Of course, he didn't know I had started a weblog B-)

Denise on Ben Ledi


While we were all sweltering in the heat, D managed to find some rain, and took this photo of herself to prove it. She doesn't like this photo because it's 'unflattering', but I think the smile says it all.

The veg patch


Peas, leeks, runner beans, salad stuff, carrots and more

The greenhouse


This greenhouse would have an echo if it wasn't full of tomatoes!

Our first tomato!


Aww! Baby!
