Many things are happening in my life at the moment but by far the sweetest thing is the birth of my first Grandchild!

 

His name is Harry Thomas Patrick and he is beautiful…..

 

my lovely son and daughter in law have come from this…..

 

 

to this…….

I had my first visit just a few days ago and spent very special time with the new family.

Isn’t he gorgeous?…..

 

All 8lbs 8 ounces of him- 7 days old on this picture!

 

Just beautiful – well done Keiron and Emma – enjoy every minute!!!

Thank you Betterwebspace.com

Iramble has been given a new look thanks to my lovely son – it is now looking very smart and very pink!

This was part of my mothers day present and I think its lovely.

I remember a conversation between my son and I many years ago when he asked me what I thought about him spending £10 a month on setting up a webhosting company. At the time I was concerned that my impoverished software engineer student was taking a risk – but this risk has paid off.

www.betterwebspace.com was born and is still growing, not only with webhosting and reseller packages, but web design, content writing and full support including a back-up service and all still at easy prices.

Well done Keiron and thank you for my facelift!!!!!

 

What a lovely surprise!

It’s been another busy week.

One of my colleagues at work got engaged and asked me to make a cake for her party, here it is during the making stage:

just before I added colour to the names piped on the top and wrapped the ribbon round….. no
I didn’t get a photo of the finished article as it was whisked away just as I added the ribbon…. But, I did try a piece at the party and it tasted really nice!

Grace, our new rescue greyhound neighbour called in for a visit while Hippie was here and for a while it was mayhem with long dogs everywhere – none of them stood still long enough for a picture – well apart from Hippie that is:

but even that was fleeting!!

Alfie thought it was great fun having visitors and after a moment standing and looking at the two girls:

…… he played chase for quite some time…. and they tore up most of my lawn!

Here is Grace with Hippie – a rare quiet moment……

And here is Grace’s finished knitted coat…..

I can’t wait to see her wearing it!

And the surprise? Well – Grace’s owner said she would make me a collage painting of Alfie, Max and Hippie because I wouldn’t take payment for the coat.

Just look at this…..

It is beautiful – I am so pleased with it – they are all captured perfectly and no photo will do it justice but I just had to share…
