Oops.

Finished it! One of the hardest puzzles I’ve ever done. Most of the pieces were the same shapes. I’ve already ordered a frame for it!

Did a bit of shopping this morning & found THIS! (There was a green triangle one too). Said it was 4 portions. Took me 10 minutes…

Taking our seats for “Richard Ayoade: Afterthoughts”!

Youngest son & Mrs K are at the O2 seeing Benson Boone. Eldest son made us katsu chicken. Yes, it was delicious!

Well, that’s a strong start for a Tuesday… On the plus side, the kitchen & my sock have a lovely strawberry scent.

We’ve walked, shopped, eaten & washed up. I’ve started the fire & poured wine. Waiting for traitors….. Cheers!!

Beach cafe ✅ Coffee ✅ Sausage bap ✅ Happy place ✅ ✅✅

Yesterday afternoon on the train out of London my wife, our son & my dad all got seats on the very busy train. A lovely younger person offered me their seat, 3 times. Do I really look THAT old & needy?

The Chimney Lift at Battersea Power Station was great! Super views of London from a different perspective.

We took dad for a pub lunch today. Delicious! But the portions were a bit small. I mean, here is my toad in the hole & my dessert…

Well. I don’t have school tomorrow so why not!?!?

Too true!!! www.instagram.com/reel/DPYKngS...

Happy Monday. Mrs K woke up at 3 am with a spider on her face. Neither of us really slept properly after that.

Fab family day at Canons Ashby @nationaltrust.org.uk & then excellent lunch at The Crown Inn in Towcester!

Dinner is served. One for the man child & one for Mrs K & me. There may well be a “few” glasses of red as well. Happy Friday all!

Well, this was a great package to open when I arrived home! Now, to drink it this evening or to save it….

When the deli at your local garden centre has an amazing selection of sausage rolls for lunch… Pulled pork BBQ pulled pork Chorizo & paprika Sunday heaven!!

Love London in the sun! Very busy. I. Our seats for Book of Mormon! The 23 y/o hasn’t seen it yet.

How fresh is YOUR broccoli? This little guy escaped ours before steaming!

Flu jab ✅ Replace 1st broken light switch ✅ Replace 2nd broken light switch ✅ Change dead bulb at 2nd “broken” switch… 🤦🏻‍♂️

Friends from The Netherlands stopping for coffee at 11. Lovely leisurely morning. 9:16 text: left a bit early, we’ll be there at 9:46. Cue high speed showers, dressing & prep!

Sun’s up. House is quiet. Everyone but me is asleep. Coffee is made. Birds are singing. Happy Sunday!

Too true…

BBC Proms Queen Bohemian Rhapsody Awesome!

This is perfect! Love #EYFS

Morning! Looking for some primary MFL help. We use The Primary French Project from Institut Francais. We’ve just switched our entire teaching network to Google & now none of the resources will work. Any great ideas????

Just caught the end of the lunar eclipse! The clouds cleared just in time.

Yesterday Guild Hall gallery, London. Free, lovely art & the remains of Roman London’s amphitheatre! Today Gardener’s World live at Audley End. We promised that we wouldn’t buy more plants.

In a Clarks outlet. So are about 100 families getting school shoes! I might need a drink.🥃

My late mother-in-law came from Grimsby & was a fervent supporter of #GrimsbyTown. I tell the children at school that I support The Mariners. Hazel would be loving this match! #UpTheMariners

Happy place. ✅

Got my brother hooked on #ClsrksonsFarm. Now in the queue…

I love having family come to visit. I love going into London. They’re in the queue for Platform 9 3/4. Again. It’s going to be a long day.

Attempting to not be offended by a water bottle….

We’re having a wild time here at Lake Garda. Tonight we are making #DavidAttenborough style wild life documentaries about Eddie the Lizard. Apologies to #EddieIzzard who inspired the name! (Sound on!)

The views!!!

The cards may not be coming up in my favour. The man child may be beating me repeatedly. But the view & the valpolicella are more than making up for it!

Greetings from the top of Monte Baldo!

Buongiorno!

Top tip when shopping at an Italian mini-market, don’t forget to weigh your melons. As well as all of your fruit & bread. Saves you from disparaging stares & tuts from your fellow shoppers & the cashier. You’re welcome.

Our view for the next week. Guess it will do.

Verona did not disappoint!

Arena Verona

Cheers from Verona!

Today is the last day of my 59th trip round the sun! Teacher’s pensions has emailed me about my options. Plenty of Rioja is helping!

This morning’s walk was a success!

We ask the children daily times tables / number bonds whenever they line up. Sometimes random, sometimes targeted. Today on the high street a parent (?) I don’t know shouted out “Mr Kerry, 2 x 6!” Happy summer.

Monday morning…. Aaaaahhhhhh

Bluesky just asked me to verify my age. I chose the facial scan option. How sad should I be that after the briefest of scans I was approved…
