Most successful purchase of the day was what I suspected might be a microwave egg poacher. Mum was unable to confirm, as was the seller. Becky however, was over the moon, as she will now 'be able to eat at the same time as her peers' when cooking breakfasts on a Friday night. After stick fighting and hot tub she poached 8 eggs separately and got her tea after everyone else had finished. Should also explain that the wand is for a Harry Potter party they are planning for their child. The robes didn't fit, but the child's Tigers tops did.
Then off to CTK for the service (alas, no Mandy, but plenty of Dibley moments) then caching with Becky and Sarah. First one easy enough, at Swithland Reservoir..
Second had the strongest magnet in the universe!!! This was the first of many 'ideal homes' we found for Harley. Decided that the Linnetts would have one of the many huge houses, and I would have the house sized garage to live in..
The trek to the next cache proved somewhat lengthy, when just after this we discovered a break in the path and trees and fences in the way of getting our intended route.
Heading into Quorn.. more random unexpected wildlife while caching..
Heard the train, and ran to the bridge, and struggled to get the camera out in time.. Messed the angle up.
Found the cache at the bridge, thanks to a moment of genius from Becky figuring out the hint. Would have been gutted if we hadn't been able to find it having walked so far. Luckily there was another route back, but it was almost as long. We did come across the train again, and I just managed to wrestle the camera out of the rucksack again. Much better pics..
And we got a wave!
Another lovely day out. Minor disappointment on discovering that the chippy is closed on Sundays. First race of the new MotoGP season at 7:30. So very excited. Would have been happy with Rossi in 6th.. but give that boy a decent bike and you can't stop the racer. It just got better and better. Sad for Cal, but last few laps were unbelievable. So glad he whooped the Rookie. Don't like Marquez. Yamaha 1, 2. Hopefully if Rossi can get decent qualifying and decent starts then he will be able to take the title from flippin Lorenzo. ... THE DOCTOR IS BACK!!!!
Lets not think about going back to school tomorrow. Meh.
