Wow, this chapter is going to include a serious amout of updating. Its been nearly 6 weeks since I last updated the blog. I usually update the blog on the weeks events every Sunday but this just hasnt happened recently. Alot has happened in this time and I would first of all like to congratulate my best buddy Ben and his wife Anoushka on finding out Anoushka is due at the begining of October. Its great news for them both and me and Nikki are over the moon for them. Ben should cope with Fatherhood alot better them me as he is used to getting about 6 hours sleep every night so getting used to 4 hours a night wont be to difficult for him! You guys will make awesome parents and it will be great for the girls to have a little Thurlow to play with.
We have also celebrated Nyah's 2nd birthday! Nikki had arranged for some of Nyah's friends to come round for a party. I came home about 4:30pm to a house that looked like a bomb had hit it! Kids running around the house, food everywhereand crayon marks all over. You could hardly move for the amount of toys but everyone looked liked they where having a great time and lots of fun.
We have also celebrated Pam and Mikes wedding anniversary. We had arranged for James and Lauren to stay at ours and we had booked Pam and Mike to stay at Monk Fryston for the night. We then had Sunday lunch followed by a walk around the gardens. It was really good visit Monk Fryston again and especially when Pam and Mike were celebrating a milestone occassion.
Well the IOM TT 2009 is fast approaching and with me and my Dad biking over there this year for the first time, I spent this morning out on the bike with Nyah. We did our usual circuit of 15 miles but it took a bit longer today as Nyah's helmet kept following off, then when we stopped to feed the horses I noticed her hat had gone missing so we had to bike back a mile to collect it, then we stopped off at the park at West Haddlesley for 20 mins while Nyah played on the swings, the slide and the climbing frame. It not far I know, but my legs and lungs felt really good. We are going over to Hull tomorrow to have an official house warming for my sisters new apartment I am hoping to do the circuit again in the morning before we set off.
At some point over the summer period me and Ben are planning on doing coast to coast from Whitehaven to Sunderland. Its 140 miles and in doing something different for charity we are planning on doing it non stop. This is something I am really looking forward to and in particular the training running up to doing it.
Well thats pretty much the last 6 weeks updated! Ill try not to leave it as long next time................
