How to clean a killer Mushroom
Grandad is making a Friday tea for us all. Lucy insists on helping out. |
Lucy takes her place by the sink where her mission is going to be to clean the mushrooms |
Grandad hands Lucy a big colender full of mushrooms to rinse |
These look so clean that even Grandma would approve |
Cheers! |
Grandma grabs some ham while Lucy picks out a really clean mushroom |

Leeds Royal Armouries
Aunty Sue taking it easy as Mummy knits a suit of Armour |
King Lucy VIII |
Queen Lucy |
Take that Fritz! |
Fits like a glove |
This young chap explains what it is like to be a foot soldier |
Lucy is captivated by the story |
She can't wait to get her mitts on his flintlock |
Lucy requires a bit of Uncky Kev assistance to pull back a bow that simulates the genuine effort required to draw a long bow. Or is it the other way round? |
Henry VIII looks down on one of his loyal knights |
The horned helmet was part of a gift from the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I to King Henry VIII of England. and Dates from 1514. It's bonkers. |
Yes - that fits fine thanks. Where is the enemy at? |
This funny glove locks onto a sword to stop you dropping it in the heat of battle. |
You see all sorts of strange things in Leeds town centre |
The main entrance |
Historically accurate Knight's Armour and jelly bean filled flintlock |
Wandering home |
Lucy borrows Jonny's old armour, shield and sword. It doesn't quite fit Jonny any more |
Do you think Kind Arthur needs another knight for his round table? |

Hyde Park Olympics
On what will subsequently be known as Super Saturday due to the fantastic Team GB performances, we grab Aunty Pink and head for Hyde Park where a fantastic free Olympic celebration is taking place. |
Many of the thousands of revelers turn green with jealousy and wish they had thought of bringing chairs to sit on. |
Accidentally we also bring an additional guest. Mr Slug has attached himself to one of the chair covers and made the trip from Barnes on Aunty Pink's back. |
Lucy gets hold of the camera and takes a picture of Daddy. |
This is Lucy's first turn in the giant water zorbs |
Lucy get's comfortable to watch Jessica Ennis win the Heptathlon final on the big screen. |
After all that excitement Lucy takes a little break. |
Then it is time to join the long queue to get into Cadbury World |
While Mummy keeps their place in the queue Lucy plays Hula Hoop with a cow |
Inside - Lucy is astonished to find someone with worse dress sense than Aunty Pink |
This young chap explains why eating lots of chocolate leads to elite sports folks and Olympic success |
On the old school message board where kids are invited to write messages of encouragement to TeamGB, Lucy elects to confess her love for her little Gallic friend Jerome |
Yay - Team GB! |
And one last treat - a trip home in a black cab where we heard Mo Farah win the 10000 Meters. |

Rashadee's Sports Day
Lucy's child minder Rashadee has arranged a sports day for all her little guests next to Barnes Pond |
Meleana has a go at paining her Daddies face |
Milly sends an impressive looking bubble over Meleana |
All the kids made special Sports Day tie dye T-shirts in advanced - so it was a pretty colourful affair |
Even more colourful once the face paints came out |
Although Mummy is looking a bit pale |
Milly is just showing off with her stylish and artful creation |
All finished off with a smashing picknik |
