Had the day off last Thursday so took the kids for a walk round Hogganfield Loch and a play in the park managed to grab a couple of shots of Zak and one of Debs

Not posted in a while so thought I would put up some recent pics taken on a long weekend break down in Derby

We went to see my Dad and Lynn and managed to squeeze in Drayton Manor Theme Park and Gullivers World Theme Park which the kids loved

In Derby city centre they had the Derby Wheel something along the lines of The London Eye that gave great views over the city I will try and post some pics of the views later

Went to Rouken Glen Park on Thursday on a rare dry and sunny day Corey took his bike and loved it plenty of space to zoom about Zak took his electric scooter but it ran out of charge too quickly lol

Took some pics of them kids and also one of the clouds….

Hi All

Went camping for 4 nights at Cobleland campsite near Aberfoyle at the start of the month just managed to get some of the pics processed so here’s a quick gallery

Bought a new tent for going away Vango Colorado 600DLX its a six man with 3 seperate rooms and a large central living area certainly makes camping easier when the weather is wet

Hi

Managed to get out the first bike run of the year just a short ride due to the cold as Corey just sits in his seat and can get cold pretty quick

Took the camera with me and a flash hoping to get some shots got a few that look pretty good just need to process them first

UPDATE : added another two pics

Hi All

Couple of pics of Zak taken using the 50mm at f/5.6 1/250th with the flash set to bounce backwards

Both pics are the same except one in colour and one in black and white which I think i prefer

What do you think ?

Hi All

Hope you all have a Good New Year we brought the bells in at Dunblane and then on the 1st I took the boys for a bit of fresh air down to the local park where there is a skate park and some buildings with graffiti that looked good for getting some pics

Here are the pics that have been done so far

All the Best for 2009

Hi all

Zak got Guitar Hero from his Nana and Grandpa for his Christmas for the Xbox360 and here are some pics of Zak, Sophie and Corey playing although none of me as of yet ……lol

Although I must admit it is quite addictive once you get started and is a good laugh

Hi All

It was Zak’s 9th Birthday today and the main thing that he asked for was a new bike that he saw recently on a trip to Toys R Us so here is a pic of his new bike and also a pic in his new Celtic top (nothing to do with me) lol

Happy Birthday Zak ..
