What to do on a cold windy day?

By slotvent on October 22, 2009

So, It’s a little cold & windy outside. Kids are away for the weekend, you haven’t that much money to go do something extravagant, but at the same time you don’t want to waste the day, what do you do? You go Kayaking!! Ok, we went Kayaking032

It was awesome! We were the only Kayakers on the entire Lake at Dinton Pastures. We’re certainly not the kind of people who let a touch of cold weather spoil our fun. I tell you what though, I think our little Kayaking session helped keep our bingo wings at bay.

One things for sure…Swans are a lot scarier when you’re in their territory, opposed to standing on the side throwing bread *eeek*

The moment we stopped paddling & just floated it was most calming! My house is an insane asylum at the best of times and that was the most relaxed I’d felt all week. It was serene!

That’s just odd!

Ok is it me or, were children’s programs a lot better when we were younger? I’m thinking yes, who’s with me? Anywho, you probably think it’s a rather stange subject to bring up however, my life at the moment is my children (hence the lack of posts) & their life ‘partially’ revolves around the TV so, add those 2 together and I have to witness a mother load of kids programs. I thought I’d share my thoughts on one particular program which, quite frankly, makes my skin crawl. Not only does it have one of THE most irritating theme songs (next to Little Einstein’s) but, the characters totally freak me out. They’re a group of Russian type dolls called ‘The Higgly Town Hero’s’ who randomly pull things out from their stomachs! Food, utensils, LADDERS! No wonder kids are so confused these days. See this dude below fixing that sink well, he most probably pulled that spanner from his gut….Wrong!

Whatever happened to the Thundercats! Or Ulysses 31?? The City of  Gold?? POB for heavens sake, does anyone remember Pob? He was a legend, the little puppet who breathed hot air onto a window & wrote his name in it!? I could go on forever! *daydreams about childhood* For anyone who wasn’t lucky enough to know who Pob was, thats him below

Guilty as charged!! I know, I haven’t posted anything for ages. I tell you what though people, I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve thought to myself  ”right, I’m going to put the kiddos to bed, have a bath & then write a quick post” No sooner has my arse touched the sofa, I indulge in a little ‘Dragons Den’ & Im out for the count! Whats going on I’m only 27? (28 tomorrow, woohoo) Indeed, I am much excited! I don’t see myself as 28 years old, noooo! I see myself as 28 years young! After all, as a fantastic Author once said -

Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind … it doesn’t matter – Mark Twain
