Wii Sports + Corey = A Good Beating

May 3rd, 2009

Corey wanted to play me on the Wii today and he really likes playing the bowling game on Wii Sports so we decided to play the best of three games

I won the first game but cant remember the score but on the next two games I had to take pictures of the screen to prove that this 3 year old can be pretty good on the old bowling lol

Corey finished the above game with a spare and then three strikes in a row which is called a turkey (that would be me then !)

So the deciding game was played thought I had a good chance of winning ….dream on he beat me again

Debs :Mothers Day:

March 25th, 2009

Hi All

Went for a walk round Drumpellier park and a quick play on the swings on Mothers Day with Debs her Mum and the Kids managed to grab a couple of shots of Debs that I liked so thought I would stick them side by side as they came in that order out of the camera

Both shot using the 50mm @ f/2.8 1/180th of a sec

Bike Run::Old Stoneyettes Hospital Grounds::

March 21st, 2009

Went for a quick run on the bike today when the weather eventually warmed up a bit along the old railway path and up the back roads heading down into the grounds of the Old Stoneyettes Hospital looking for some places to take some pics

Just Corey and me on this run but he insisted on taking pictures of me before I was allowed to take any of him lol

Worked on a few of the pics of Corey might eventually add one of the shots he took of me lol
