Default What were you doing this morning?

Last night my daughter asked if we could cut out the Pumpkin's the wife bought them, I made the mistake of saying that we'd design them last night and cut them out "first thing in the morning".

Designs complete last night using masking tape as a better canvass

Then at bloody 6:45am my daughter went into my sons room, woke him and started cheering songs on to get me up to start the bloody Pumpkin's!

Anyway, one flu'd up dad cracked on

Looks good, isn't it strange how pumpkins only really appeal to young kids, yet it's the adult that's wields the carving knife

I was in bed for my Sunday relaxation this morning till 11:30am. Now I'm thinking that those were the days when I carved pumpkins for my angels who ran out on Halloween night, pretending to everyone that they were ghosts, and blackmailed them for sweets gain. I also think of the good old Woolworths on occasions like this. It was a great place to buy Halloween sweets from.

Now I'm going to put the kettle on.

Tea, anyone?

Sorry, forgot to stay- great pumpkin carving there, Rob Day.

Enjoy this time and festive activities with your young children. Once they're older, you'll miss all that.

Triathlon Training in sunny Cyprus for me.

Can't say I'm missing things such as Haloween or the upcoming guy Fawkes. Missing my other half but that's about it!

Edit: missing the scoob!!

We saw white rhino, although the other people from the lodge saw black rhino. And yes, poaching was a problem there too

Unfortunately nothing nice. 12000 miles from home and got a ******* infection. Resulted in a random doctor slicing me open to relieve the pressure.
