Proud parents watched 15-year-old pick up her Duke of Edinburgh Bronze award… Certificate still signed by Phillip in absentia but we all know the award was set up by him a long time ago. We were very happy to see C pick up the award. She received the envelope heralding the start of Silver but she’s been doing the volunteering since January, going to the cubs as a Young Leader.

And today being April Fools I hesitated posting anything else as it might be seen as a big joke but I held off until evening as I’ve watched in disbelief as it snowed again… and I have got plans… to sort out camps and Korea equipment this weekend might also involve a blood test if I can find somewhere able to do it. I tried Welwyn and my own surgery have said I need a copy of the letter from Addenbrookes which they should have…


I’ve had a wander around the garden and there are some things about to flower including some really dumpy tulips! Not sure what to think! Also apologies for my shadows but it’s bright!
