Fairies

In my never ending quest to create the perfect flower fairy portraits, here is the latest experiment with Daisy, just before i chopped some of her hair off.


This is Iris posing in her birthday nightie (that i made) and her birthday wings, wand and crown that she bought from a toy shop in Wells with her birthday money.


oh and this is just a little extra photo.

Fish Stock

We went down to Devon on the 10th to go to 'Fish Stock' in Brixham and the TAF's production of "Bugsy Malone".
Fish Stock Link
Torbay Acting Factory
Fish stock was fun, it was a bit fishy, the paella was rather tasty, there were some rather strange people, the music was a laugh and Marc did compering for a ready steady cook off .
The cook off was with Andy Sewell, the head chef at the Quayside Hotel in Brixham, against Richard Hunt, the head chef at The Grand hotel in Torquay.
Andy won.

Here are the girls on a trawler, they loved going down under the deck and seeing the little bunks where the men would sleep and little galley where they would eat their dinners.

Here is a rather strange fishy creature.
Here the girls are having their feet cleaned by tiny little fish, they said it tickled rather a lot.
This is a lady crab.
Daisy doing the rabbit ears on Iris.
Bugsy Malone was brilliant, the children who were in it were fantastic, well done my sister Polly for putting on a brilliant show.

Charlie the Chimp

Iris apparently did some good writing today at school about her friend Peter.
Peter told me that he did good writing about his friend Iris.
Iris however got to take home 'THE CLASS CHIMP' for one night only.

Charlie the Chimp comes in a red bag and has a diary that has to be filled out by each child.
Iris is indescribably excited about this turn of events and Charlie the Chimp is currently in her bed with her now.
