Once again a
busy week in the Luce household (when is it not?) I have been busy taking
photos during the week to remind me of all the happy times!
Jess
discovered a rather large hedgehog in the meadow, fortunately one sniff was
enough!
We had an
excellent netball mixed tournament on Tuesday evening, Steve and Bex ran the
raffle and lots of people made cakes to sell. All in all £2,400 was raised for
pancreatic cancer UK. Phili would have been so proud of Imogen; she did a
brilliant job of organising it.
The high
tide and lovely weather meant I managed dog walking and second breakfasts on
the beach before 9:30am- and a lovely evening swim at Rozel. Still can’t get
Jess to come and join me though, but maybe that’s not a bad thing!
I don’t
intend to discuss political items on this blog but the demise of yet another
large company in the island is pretty awful, needless to say the politician has
been hard at work this week.
Friday was
Dan’s day off so just for a change he thought he’d go out on the boat…..which
of course encompassed lots of high jinks on the water, exploring caves and
jumping off rocks ( all in line with health and safety of course)….
One boy had
a go pro(small camera) attached to his chest but when he jumped into the water,
the force of it knocked the camera into his chin and split it open (later a
trip to A&E and ‘glue’). The camera was lost in the ocean. Another boy
jumped with different go pro strapped to him, again the water knocked the
camera away from strapping, Jack was in the water watching and grabbed part of
the camera case and after abrief exchange of words quickly realised the actual
camera was spiralling away out of sight, so free dived. Like Daniel a few weeks
ago no time to equalise his ears and suffered earache- but rescued the camera-
a hero!
This pic is
them watching video footage of their exploits- why none of them are wearing
shirts is beyond me. I was left with the
usual trail of sand, copious amounts of dirty teacups and an empty
biscuit/snack cupboard, no change there then!
The week also included a spot of razor fishing-And Jess met up with her grandfather and uncle down at le saie- and while she enjoyed splashing about in the shallows she still didn't swim!!
Finished off the week with supper at a friends house, beautiful setting as we ate outside with a view over the bay, and good company.
