Sam's first school Concert

Well he pulled it off!  After his first ever school concert, the wee man was very chuffed we were there and that we also made a fuss of him after!
Who could resist though, with such classics as: Teddy Bear Rock 'n' Roll, and Mountain Play!
Anyways, I've been instructed that I can't post the general photos or video of the event, due to some of the parents having concerns for doing so - so I thought I might post what I can...there may be some audio to follow!

Cut Gate Biking

10km mountain bike circuit around Langsetts Reservoir, taking in the stunning Cut Gate Path.......one of the best descents in the peak?
Unfortunately Richard lost his Omega on the descent, and after a couple of repeat ascents up to the last point of knowing when he last had the watch led to nothing................................................did lead the way for two more excellent descents though!

Cliff Hanger Extravaganza...

We've all had a rare family day out, with a wee jaunt to one of the city's local parks, to enjoy the best of what the annual Cliff Hanger event has to offer - everyone had a terrible time (!):

Just nipping out..

Went out for what is a wee bit of a grueller (lots of hills), but is certainly turning into a popular one for me; especially as its an off up and out into the Peak District from the Ambo Station very easily:
Stanage End (Moscar in the background)

Kirst says the shoes are starting to stink!
