going to castle cove beach for lunch at the shack then pos a curry at the Weymouth Tandoori.

Sunday need support at Dragon Boat racing on weymouth beach.

Well Liam's been off for several weeks now and it's fair to say that I cannot work well with him around, not because he deliberately distracts me or because I'm such a great Dad I spend all my time trying to entertain him but just because I'm out of my term-time routine which I like! We seem to have a constant stream of visitors too which is very nice but not condusive to hard work and long hours in the office making phone calls.

This morning is no exception, I'm up early in the office and the curtains of the house are still drawn because everyone else in there is still fast asleep. Last night we had 5 adults and 4 teenage kids staying and it was the chaos that you would think for such a houseful. Mary's sister Kay has been staying with us along with her youngest daughter Sally. On top of that we met up in town yesterday with friends of ours from Yeovil, Dave and Joy who were in Weymouth with their children Laim (yes, another one) and Georgia, who all stayed with us dotted around the house.

We managed to cater for them, cheese and wine seemed to do the trick although I might have opted for a curry from Weymouth Tandoori given the chance.

Just come back from a great holiday in Greece, went to one of the small islands called Skiathios, they filmed part of Mama Mia there and the main bit was filmed on Skopolos which is the next island along. Chartered a yacht over to there and walked up to the church where they had the wedding at the end.

One taxi driver we met did some driving for Piers Brosnan and he asked him where his PPK was, Brosnan replied that he was on the island to dance, not to kill! cool.

Liam learnt how to dive properly and his swimming has come along a treat, he's like a fish now whereas before he swam more like a dog, amazing to see the improvement that a little maturity has brought.

We played on the ringos behind a speed boat every day, all loved that, liam complained that his arms got tired holding on at first but he must have grown stronger as the holiday wore on as he wasn't complaining by the end.

Back in work now, wish I wasn't but I am. going to write a few articles for the Dorchester site now.
