New Year's Day Games

Another fun family evening playing board games.

New Year's Eve 2025

Scott and I were on our own this Hogmany, Darren had a gig to play, Jodie went to Porsha's and Cerys was at Blakes. Jodie and Darren left about 6.45pm. Of course, we had to include our beautiful angel boy in the celebrations. This was Hamish on New Year's eve 2024. We went into the hot tub for a while in the early evening. We then watched a movie in our PJ's 11.30pm, we got the pool area ready for our first swim of the New Year. Happy New Year 🎉

Bush Removal

These bushes down the side were getting overgrown and basically untidy looking, not to mention that I need more space for my Cacti!, so we decided to get rid of them and give it a fresh new look. We started cutting some of them down on 2nd February 2025. Work on this took a back seat for a while then commenced again 2nd November 2025. 2nd November, we started cutting back and removing the bushes again as they had grown again since February. 9th November, more removal and Scott started building a wall to secure the earth for my new cactus garden. 17th January 2026, we finally got round to removing what was left of the bush, the roots, and by gosh, were they hard to dig out!. Now to make it into a Cacti garden.
