Photo UpdateDave and Michelle's Wedding Day, 12th May 2006Happy Birthday Grandad, 91!
This weekend has been great. Friday night was Deborah's 40th birthday party at The Edge in Poulton. Mum stayed over Friday night, and Saturday included an oat-cake breakfast followed by errands ending in South Shore.


On Sunday, Abigail and I had fun at Sharkies at Fleetwood's Freeport whilst Clare shopped for bargains with her mum, followed by an impulse visit to PC World in the afternoon. We were able to escape PC World without spending any readies but grew our family by three instead. We are now the proud guardians of three hamsters - our first official pets (spiders don't count).


I have named mine, the darkest of the three, he/she is called Rocko
We need two more names, any suggestions?

Actually, I almost forgot to mention - they're not just any old hamsters - they're Russian Hamsters (don't you know?)

Thanks for the names! - I have a feeling Clare will like Verve Cliquae or another drink related name.

Sarah and I had two hamsters WAY before having the kids. We called them Dick and Harry. I'm the Tom!
