264. First Bowl (The Boy has been asking for a fortnight to go bowling as his reward chart treat, but failed to gain it at the last hurdle the weekend before. He managed it this week, and we had great fun on Sunday morning. First bowl and The Boy got a strike; what's that about?)
265. Peaceful (Sleeping Boy photos used to happen on a Wednesday, they'll now turn up on Mondays. Long day; out at 8, home at 6.)
266. And again (And Tuesdays as well, it seems. Very long day.)
267. Dragonrider (One of the local parks has wonderful wooden sculptures in it, this is one of The Boy's favourites.)
268. Peepo (Another park after school, one of my favourites this time; the clifftop park! I love standing looking over the Bristol Channel while The Boy plays, it blows the cobwebs away.)
269. Cousins (After school today we popped down to see The Boy's cousins, and then bring his 8 year old male cousin back to my mum's house for a sleepover. He hasn't been 'conker'ing yet this year, so we stopped off in our secret street so they could gather them up. I love the golden light in this photo of them both wandering off to find conkers, but when I look at it I fast-forward 12 years or so, and I can see them sloping off down the pub together.)
270. Oh boy!(After The Boy's circus skills session this morning we went into town so he could spend his birthday voucher in the Lego store, and of course we had to call into Hamley's. The Boy was excited to see a Dalek there and was brave enough to stand next to him and touch him, at which point he whipped his 'head' around and asked the 'young hu-man' if he had just touched his plunger. The Boy roared his head off! And then twenty minutes later threw up in the centre of Cardiff spectacularly. And has done all day!)

That dragon is spectacular! He was brave, not scared of the Dalek!!
So sorry to hear he is not well now, hope he feels better soon! x
Oh wow, gorgeous pictures of your beautiful boy, love the Dalek shot and him sleeping, just wonderful x
Gorgeous photos- this evening we drew up our first reward chart and so your post drew me in! We saw the dalek too today! (We were after Batgirl and walked out with Playmobil!). Hope The Boy recovers quickly. x
Wow, that dragon is amazing! And how wonderful to get a strike while bowling! Sorry he is unwell though and hope he feels better soon. x
I love that wooden sculpture, so much more imaginative than the average park play equipment. Lovely capture of the boy and his cousin too.
Sorry to hear about The Boy being poorly and hope he is on the mend soon. Love the photo of him with his cousin. Cousins can be so special. I never had them close by as a kid and my kids finally got one close by 21 months ago. They adore her, she's like the little sister they'll never have.
Loving the telescope shot. Well done in your strike little one!
That dragon is stunning and I am impressed that the boy touched the dalek. Hope he feels better soon xx
Love that dragon. We have a similar sort of serpent in one of our local parks, but without those great wings. I think I like your clever telescope shot best though.
Love Hamleys! That dragon is awesome and I bet my boys would love it! Great to hear the boy is better now x #365
Oh dear hope he is feeling better soon x
Hope the boy is feeling better now, love the photo of him walking with his cousin x
That dragon looks amazing – great fun to climb on! Love the telescope photo too.
Another gorgeous set of pictures – I particularly love the dragon sculpture and "peepo". Hope The Boy is feeling better soon.
What a remarkable wood carving. I can see why The Boy (and indeed any boy) would love it
Autumn is certainly drawing in. Lovely pictures as always, I do love the sleepy pictures. They always look so peaceful when asleep x
That dragon sculpture is amazing, and I love the cousins shot – so atmospheric.
Well I like your two sleeping shots 😉 I don't know what it is about boys and ten pin bowling. My boy always beats us hands down!? 🙂
A strike, well done little man, we are off bowling for a treat in a couple fo weeks too, the kids really love it. That dragon sculpture is wonderful. Mich x
Gorgeous photos. Love the one of the Boy looking through the telescope.
Haha! GREAT shot through the telescope!
And love that Autumn street… The sun now is unmatchable 🙂
Happy Sunday
I love that dragon. No wonder The Boy likes it.
Obviously it was the dalek that made him sick. Hope he's over it now.
Great photos, as always! Ooooh daleks still scare my mummy a bit!
I love the Peep photo, how you can see his eye and the dramatic sky in the back. Fab photo! Hope he's better soon xx
Peepo is my favourite. Brilliant!
oh i am sorry to hear that the boy is poorly – i hope he is better now?
lovely set of photos – i love the one of him and his cousin with the light shining down on them as they chat away. that wooden dragon is awesome! x
That dragon is amazing! And I love the other park picture too – what an amazing vista. Hope the boy is feeling better – was it the dalek shock that caused it or something else?
Beautiful photos, I especially like the peepo photo, often people take a photo of the view but I love seeing the person behind the telescope
Ah lovely photo's, especially of little man sleeping, so cute. That dragon is amazing! x#365 (ps missed the link but I've done a post lol)
oh dear at the dalek scaring him, probably was not the idea the shop had in mind. Love the strolling down the street, yes cousins are special, mine were around whenever we were at my grans as kids.
Love the dragon, looks a great piece to play on.
Hope the vomiting has stopped.
The wooden dragon is awesome. I think you're right about the cousins trotting off down the street.. i remember thinking the same with my 2 boys.
Love the dragon, it's beautiful, what a fabulous thing to have in a park. The shot with the telescope is great, what a dramatic sky. And, I the photo of the cousins is really special x
Oh bless him with the Dalek! That dragon sculpture looks fab.
