Holiday season is upon us, the kids are off you far to many weeks and the rain has started..the perfect British summer.

The new bike is awesome..alot can be said for taiwanese enginneering:-)

The majestic football pitch in the back garden is in need of some repairs after months of use..goal mouths looking very bear.

The cat that has been shitting in the garden is in for a shock..either a 22 rifle ( I kid) or some potent cat spray in his favorite patch.

Talking of wildlife, Kieron and I spotted a Kestral in the garden the other day...awesome sight to add to the bats

On the trip front, looks like were off camping in a few weeks with many of our friends..but trip will be cut short as United are playing at home in the first game of this years campaign. This will be followed up with a trip to Benidorm (Black with Sun, I'm told...I hate both)inspired by the TV series, and the final summer jaunt will be to Brussels ( a trip inspired by Dom Joly's happy hour) to sample good beer, mussels and chips...yum yum.Later in the year I'll be visiting Berin (at the same time as the 20th yr anniversery of the wall coming down) and also Galveston and Houston...both sadly with work

On the general front, a big up to Kieron for helping Neston Nomads under 10's get to the final of the Allport Hawks tournement at Parkgate, sadly they lost to Vauxhall 1-0 in the final.
