Didn't think it was possible to get sunburned in the land of the long rains. However, we spent the day at Millisle playing on the beach in perfect sunny weather and all came home pink. Gill is finding it a little uncomfortable to sit!
The highlight of the day was the test flight of my new power kite. It's a 4m2 Ozone Samurai which will whip me into the air with a good breeze and pull landboard or buggy across the sand at high speed. Boys and their toys!
The kids are starting to sound more Irish - worlds like "claaaaaass", "amaaazing" and "cracking" which all apparently mean good and phrases like "at the minute" and "so it is" creeping into their vocabulary.
Just got back from a lovely ride along the beach. Long summer evenings are the best! Having 5 hours of light after working hours (not that I actually work - but you understand the concept) means that you have time for fun. It's just hard to get the kids asleep at 930 when the sun is still shining!
OK, that's it for the week
Cheers
Pete
