Trip to Felixstowe

We have just got back from a long day seeing dad's side of the family. We left about 9:30 this morning and arrived at about 11:30. We then had a bit of a laze at my Granny and Dad-dad's, and had lunch. After lunch, I watched my first ever episode of "The Waltons" and went to my Aunt's and Uncle's house where 3 of my second cousins were. The eldest is 3 or 4, then the next is nearly 2, and the youngest is not yet 1! So I played with them quite a lot. And we went back to my grandparents. When we got back there, it was about 4:30 and at around 4:45 we had tea. Then we slobbed for a bit before returning at around 7:35.

Wales

Hi again! Last week we got back from a hot and relaxing week in Wales! While we were there, we went to the beach twice; we climbed a few hills; I went on a 3 1/2 hour treck on a horse; we went into town a few times, and just stayed at home reading/playing Monopoly/playing RISK. We stayed in a small cottage owned by some people who used to live near us. My favorite part was either the horseriding or the hill walks, and Smudge's favorite part was either the hill walks or killing the mouse!

Well that's all for now!

Bye!

The Lord Of The Rings

At the moment, my Dad and I are reading together The Lord of the Rings trilogy. We are up to the second one: The Two Towers. I am really enjoying reading them and they are really exciting. On my 11th birthday (last year) my dad said we could watch the first film, and then on my 12th birthday we can watch the second. So last year we watched the film before we read the book, but this year dad said we had to read the second book first. My birthday is in 2 weeks today and so we have to finish the second book (which we started 2 weeks ago) in 2 weeks!

Hello!

Hello! I have just started a blog. A bit about me: I am nearly 12 years old, have a mum, dad, 2 sisters, a dog, and a fish!
My mum's name is Sue, my dad's name is David (his blog is: http://www.davidpfield.blogspot.com/) My eldest sister's name is Sarah, and my elder sister's name is Ruth (her blog is: http://www.pickledonion.blogspot.com/).
My dog's name is Smudge, and my fish's name is Daisy. I used to have 2 fish, one called Daisy (the one I've got now) and the other Tom, after the brill toy shop in London called DAISY AND TOM. But one night Tom jumped out of his tank and "drowned!" So now I only have Daisy, but soon hopefully I'll get another one.
A bit about my family: My Dad lectures at Oak Hill College; my Mum teaches me at home; Sarah is going to a University in America in August and is 19; Ruth has a job in London and is 17; Smudge spends his life sleeping, eating, getting taken for walks, getting cuddled, scratching (!) and is 5; and Daisy spends her time being a goldfish and isn't yet 1!
At the moment it is 21:06 on Thursday the 20th of July 2006! My favorite colours, as you can tell, are pink, purple, and (I haven't yet got to it) orange!
