We are just back from a fab day out in nottingham thanks to C who arranged a trip for the french gang to Nottingham Castle. The french gang are all the friends that we have french lessons with. In the end it was only V & I and us and C & D who were able to come. Miriam and the boys were able to come as well so it was a really boys day out. There was so much to see and do at the castle that we didn't get it all done before it was time to run for the train. There isn't much left of the medieval castle due to riots and the civil war but the mansion that is there now houses a fantastic, very child friendly museum. There are still ruins to discover in the grounds as well as caves to explore. The boys had a ball in the play park, in fact I suspect that was sam's favorite part of the day. It is definately a place we will go back to, there was so much that we didn't get time to do. Thank you C for organising the day!!!
Having been crated for a good part of the day, the dogs were delighted to see us when we got home. We took them for a long walk around watermead just managing to dodge the showers. Since coming home Rogue has been practicing his new skill of opening doors to let himself in the living room. Shame he can't do the same when he has to go out at 4 in the morning! He is actually getting better on that front and managed to hold it until 6am today-sleeping in until 6, what a treat!!

Consider yourself lucky that Rogue hasn't figured out how to open the refrigerator...but he's still young and there's still time for him to hone his skills!
This evening he has mastered the dishwasher so the fridge can't be far behind!! Never have I met anyone so totally ruled by his stomach. He would eat 24/7 if we let him.
Hi Tammy-- Sounds like you had a great day out. Hazel is enjoying the Dick and Jane books--just annoyed I didn't buy as many as I wanted--didn't think she'd enjoy them as much as she has! Elizabeth
