And the band played on....

Image
Hi again. Another fun weekend has come and gone and we are counting dow the days until the plane takes off for Newcastle. This weekend we went to see a brass band play in a local park. I danced round and round Mummy and Daddy until they were nearly sick with dizziness. Pics attached. We also played a bit of tennis and daddy bought me my very first tennis raquet and says its the first step on my way to SW19, whatever that is? ( I tried to explain he was to become wimbledon champion, but he wasnt having any of it - Dad). We also watched the Finding Nemo movie which was brill - there is a pic of me falling asleep on the sofa with daddy whilst watching it. Mummy and daddy say if I am really good and really quiet I can watch movies all the way to Scotland on the plane - 26 hours -WOO-HOO! Back soon. Boo

I promised Townsville.... you get Townsville

I dont mean to sound like Heather with the weather (who is a BBC weather girl, for all Aussie blog followers), but Hello There! I did say I'd get you some Townsville pics and here they are. One on the beach, one at the aquarium looking at someone cleaning the windows which was very funny and one of the sunset at Susans house. I had a good few days there with Mum seeing Susan, John and Harry and kate. I enjoyed going on the big plane and it was good practice for going to scotland in a few weeks time. This wee kend for easter we went to warwick to see Nana and papa and last weekend we went to see daddy run in a half marathon on sunday night. Mum has taken some pics on her phone which I will post here too soon. I had great fun splashing in the puddles. Will write again soon. Boo

Class photos

Hello there. Here are a couple of pics that I thought you just had to see. The first is my recently taken Nursery photo. Mummy and Daddy dont know how the man managed to get me to smile at the camera as they say they have been trying for 2 years and not managed it yet. The 2nd pic is from Christmas time when we went to Dreamworld and I met Wags the Dog and Captain Feathersword from the Wiggles. More adventures to come soon - need to show you my pics from my trip to Townsville last weekend! Bye for no, Boo.

Well hello there - what have you been up to this week Alastair, I hear you ask? Well its funny that you should all say that cause I have been to visit Nana and Papa in Warwick for the weekend. We got up to lots of exciting things there but to cut a long story short I was bitten by a duck! It was at the warwick show! They had a nice kids area where you could pat all the animals and that was fine but in the next shed they had all the chickens and ducks and I just continued to pat away as I had been doing but one duck wasnt wanting this and bit my hand! Anyway, moving on. On the way back to Brisbane we stopped at a national park for a picnic lunch and we played in a river for a while. We had a go at skimming stones and playing pooh-sticks. At the picnic I tried to smear vegemite on daddys face but he was having none of it! This week I am going to Townsville with Mummy to see Susan, John, Harry and kate which will be fun. We are going in a big plane which daddy says is practise for the bi...

Brisbane Parade

Hello Blog readers of the world. Today we all went into the city (on a bus, woo-hoo) to see a St Patrick's day parade. Never before have so many Irish Bog-trotters been seen outside of their homeland, according to daddy. As you can see I wore my green, yellow and white Dorothy the Dinosaur hat so that I wouldn't look too out of place. Daddy wore his Scotland rugby shirt in order to annoy the Bog-trotters whom Scotland are playing at rugby at Murrayfield later today. There were lots of pipe bands and people wearing kilts. The funniest thing was seeing a pipe band playing Scotland the Brave - at an Irish parade - how funny - I almost dropped my lollipop I was laughing so hard. Anyway, lets see what the rest of the weekend brings. Bye, Boo.

seafaring tales

Hello all, hope you are all well. This weekend we spent a lot of time by the sea. On saturday we got up and went down to the Gold coast for an early morning swim. We forgot the camera so there's no pics of there. On saturday afternoon my friends carter and xavier came over for dinner and weall ended up in the bath after getting dinner all over ourselves. On sunday we all went out on Jason and Janelles boat to Peel Island in Moreton Bay. Dont worry Granny, you can see I am wearing my life-jacket! I particularly like the fact it comes with a whistle. Jason moored the boast close to the beach and we waded ashore. We had a good swim and picnic for about 1-2 hours then it was back on the boat for the trip home. I fell asleep on daddys knee. On sunday afternoon we went for a BBQ at a friends of Mummys. Again, we forgot the camera! What an active weekend we had. Bye for now - ally boo.

More? What? Twice in 1 day?

Here are some more pics. One shows me being a scary Monster at the dinner table whilst the other shows me in my wooly Wiggles hat in preparation for my visit to Granny and Grandpa in the Uk where I think it might be cold!
