Hi All

Rather than wait until his birthday in October we got Corey his first "big boy" bike today so that he could use it over the summer holidays

He now says that he doesnt need to have a birthday as he has got his bike just now …lol

He wanted to go on the bike run that we usually do along the railway path so we headed down there and he cycled half the way along the path to the bridge and then we came back again he did really well and peddled all the way

Here’s a pic of him as we turned at the bridge

Just a quick update on the stuff growing in the garden

Runners taken from main strawberry plant into green tub to create two new plants (hopefully)

More updates to come as things start to grow a bit more quickly now
