Windsor trip 2010

     We had a long but great day yesterday at Legoland. Samuel loved it and Ryan was just happy as always.
Today we went to Windsor Castle, I was really surprised how big the place was, does the queen really need all that space!? We also all went on the Windsor Wheel which was alittle scary, I would of taken I pic with my phone but was holding onto Ryan like a vice!

Sun flare in HD

    Here is a short video clip of the last sun solar flare that went off on the 2nd of this month.
 And NASA says that this just marks the start of a long, crazy solar storm season.

 The Sun goes through a regular activity cycle that lasts about 11 years, cycling between activity (solar maximum) and quiet (solar minimum). The last solar maximum was in 2001 followed by a long period of very little activity. The eruptions are among the first signs that the Sun is waking up and beginning to move towards another solar maximum, expected to occur in about 2013.

Our Scarborough Holiday

     Now I know its been a few weeks since we got back but its been all go so I have not had time to write a new post....
 So here we are, we spent 5 lovely days just on the outskirts of Scarborough at a place called Cayton Bay. There was plenty todo and we were out and about every day as the weather was so nice, though the streets at home were being flooded!!
 Some of the places we got to where....

• Bridlington.
• Filey:
• Robin Hood Bay:
• Whitly:
• Bondville miniature village

  All great places, and we took lots of pictures. Almost every early evening we went into Scarborough for a walk on the beach and to have an evening meal. I think if we could we would pack up and live there as it was such a nice place, the weather was great and we all felt healthy for all the walking we did!!

    So anyway have a look at the pictures and there will be a video coming soon, which even has Samuel on stage playing games!!

Microsoft Surface - Gamers Dream?

     Now I'm a bit of a gamer when given the chance, and for the last few years have been watching Surface with excitement! This looks great, still well out of reach price wise for any one that does not have there own jet, but we can dream.
