Hello, Elle!
The boys' games sound better than the computer games that all the young ones have.
Mind you, I have never played a computer game but with board games there is family interaction!
I hope the golf coverage improves but I don't hold out much hope !
I hope you all enjoy the Carvery!

Hi, Rusty!
We have a fairly wide selection of our own board games, but the boys have brought new ones with them, so that makes a change.
Yes, I agree with you about the family interaction......much more fun!
In my book anyway!
I have been kept busy opening presents and cards.... it is almost as exciting as Christmas!
I'm not sure I like the speed with which birthdays now seem to come around though..... is someone turning on the clocks ?!
The older one gets , the faster life seems to speed by!
Oops, I am being called for yet another game........!

Hi, Rusty!
We have all had a lovely time!
The roast lunch was delicious, and it was great to have (most of) the family all together at the same time.
I do not think I shall require any dinner......
But no doubt the boys will be hungry again before their bedtime!
How was the golf coverage today?
Did you manage to watch it satisfactorily?

Good evening, Elle!
Sounds like you had a good time at lunch!
Golf is going OK.
It will be more interesting after the "cut" is made.
I have to pop out for an hour but will watch it when I return.

Good evening, Rusty!
Are you back?
I wondered whether you had been called upon to ferry one (or more) of the girls somewhere?
Yes, we are having a good time with the family staying ......and it was very nice all getting together for lunch
The four cousins get on very well.....especially the eleven year old and the seven year old...they seem to have a common bond.
Tomorrow will be a 'fitness' day... I am hauling everyone out for a walk in afternoon!
Although I shall take the dog out as usual ,too, in the early morning.
How is the golf progressing
I am not about to miss any current Athletics anywhere, am I?

Hello, Elle!
Good guess!
Was taxiing La Bamba!
It is usually the other way round!
Good that the young ones all get on well.
I am enjoying the golf.
The only athletics I can think of, is the Paris Marathon on Sunday.
It is being shown on EuroSport, but I do not know if it will be on BBC Red Button?
I do not know who is running, but there are 50,000 entrants!

Hi, Rusty!
Just having a quiet read........
The boys are long since in bed, and daughter has just followed them.
My husband is dozing in the chair.....
We have had a great day, but tiring!
Thank you for the tip off about the Paris Marathon...
If I find it , I shall see if I can record it.
Do you have to go out again to collect Miss L-B and bring her safely home ?

Good morning, Elle!
Lovely day here.
I'm not long home.
Took a convoluted route to ASDA!
Miss L-B's Mum collected her.
L-B has us well organised!
I don't think the Paris Marathon is on BBC Red Button, that I can see.

Good morning, Rusty!
It is dull here this morning, and is very cold out.
I am being inveigled into playing games any minute.......
I have begged time for a quick coffee first, so will write this whilst I have a breather!
I think Miss L-B has you all wrapped around her little finger!
But it is good that she feels she can always turn to her granddad for assistance!
And I am sure you are always happy to oblige!
I am "dragging" everyone out for a walk after lunch......
What do you have planned for today?

Hello, Elle!
It has became cloudy here, but not cold.
Miss L-B and me get on fine!
I am home for the rest of the day....I think.
No plans, as such.
I've finished the puzzle, got 6 out of 20 correct in the quiz, and that's me for the day!
