Stonehaven is Beautiful

Had a lovely couple of days here in sunny (very) bonny Scotland. Stonehaven is lovely and and the people are very friendly. We have worked on the new WLSInfo Charity website which is looking very exciting.
The flights up to Scotland were great and I am actually quite looking forward to teh flight back - especially as I will see all my boys when I get home.

The Athletics Have Started - yeah!!!!!

Well at long last the athletics have started and they are looking really promising. Also still doing well in the sailing and of course the cycling. GB should win plenty in the velodrome.
Dylan, Toby & Jasper are all still doing really well and getting on fine. Last couple of days, Dylan has had a short free run in the park and has thoroughly enjoyed himself. Overall he is doing well. Three steps forward, one back so generally in the right direction.
Off to Aberdeen in a couple of weeks. Flying up on my own - gulp!! but should be an interesting couple of days. Going with Ken from WLSInfo Charity and meeting the website server people for some IT tuition
Flying from Birmingham and going via BMIBaby which will hopefully be OK.
Staying in a lovely looking place called Stonehaven and the hotel is The Belvedere Hotel

Looking forward to it but a bit anxious about the flight.

Enjoyed the Cinema Last Night

Nigel & I went to the cinema last night and saw The Dark Knight The cinema was packed but a nice temperature and we both thoroughly enjoyed the film. It is quite graphic and I certainly wouldn't be taking young children to see it, but it was a great 2.5 hours of good entertainment, with great special effects and some tremendous vehicle chases. I found it very sad to see Heath Ledger who was a terrific actor and was brilliant as the very frightening Joker - I do hope that he gets the posthumous Oscar that everyone is talking about.
Overall I would recommend it to everyone.

Four Days Post Op

Overall Dylan is coping brilliantly with his limited agility - I think that Nigel & I are finding it harder in some ways. In a strange way I think that it is helping the other boys accept him more as they view him as a poorly little boy.
Had a good BBQ a our friends in Peterborough and are having another one today with my brother - if the weather holds. If it doesn't, Nigel will be out there with a brolly and we will eat indoors.
Mixed week weather wise this coming week so let's see what it brings us.
