A Wonderful Weekend


On Saturday Luke and Joe were both taking part in a judo competition in Leicester. There were a lot of boys in Joe's weight category, so even though he won one of his 3 fights he missed out on medal. Luke had a smaller group and only lost one fight so he was awarded the silver medal (which looks very like a trophy!). This is a clip of his best throw, unfortunately partially hidden by the ref. Luke's usual - wait for the other guy to try to throw you, then use their momentum to bury them!

When we got back we finally managed to put together Elaine's swinging settee (bought with all those Christmas and birthday vouchers). It suits her...


We had a campfire dinner on Saturday night, complete with sausages on sticks, potatoes in the embers and toasted marshmallows. Lovely. On Sunday, we had a day gardening (I really need a gardener!) and then had an impromptu BBQ/campfire with the Blakes in the evening. All in all, a wonderful weekend.
