Park, Park, Park & Park

Here's a good one from the festivities last week-end.

I just put some recent photos into Flickr. Just click on the tile to see them all in big size.

Uncle Adrian spent some time over the weekend teaching C the finer points of Cricket. Adrian is a keen cricketer, and his skill helped him learn to hit a baseball pretty easily while he was in Canada. This puts C in a good position to learn both National Sports.

This is the first picture of C standing un-aided. He's looking quite dashing in his jacket, and I, of course, held his cocktail while he asked the ladies to dance.

Our friends Katrina and Edward gave us some beautiful 1920s-style 'bowl' champagne glasses as a housewarming present. And here is Nettie, complete with 'flapper hairstyle', looking very sophisticated and trying one out.

Idoia and Inigo, our friends from San Sebastian in the Basque Country, came over to London last weekend. Last time (in February) they brought their daughter Laia. This time they brought two other couples and we had a very jolly pub lunch at the Earl Spencer, Adam's new local. Here we all are outside our new house.

Alex and Mila, old friends of mine (Bella's) when I lived in Spain were over in England last week, and came to say 'hola'. Their little boy Daniel (aged 3) opted for an afternoon siesta, and Christian kindly lent him his pram.
