how to self build power armour

By Leave a Comment

  Well as we all know Badger is a creative old thing and this summer has mostly been about building 2 suits of armour in the shed! So here he is to explain!   Those of you who know me will understand my passion for all things creative. The joy of making something in 3 dimensions that you have only ever seen in a book or on a screen is hard to explain to those who don't share it, but in the video below I have started to try and explain it. This summers project was to build 2 suits of power armour for a live role play based on the Fallout computer game, So with access to … [Read More...]

Are you ready for the new term?

By Leave a Comment

  Well I survived the first 2 weeks of term! Well mostly anyway...... I have finally found all those resources I "put somewhere safe" at the end of last term and promptly lost, drunk more coffee than is good for me & almost remembered the names of all the new staff in the school! I hope it is going as well for all you parents out there too! Have you had to visit lost property yet for a missing school jumper? And just how many school trips/book bags/rafflle tickets/donations have you had to fork out for? Well help is at hand for those you feel you need it! School … [Read More...]

A starry night sky and an early morning

By 1 Comment

I laid in our camper van last week, roof blind open watching the stars, un-spoilt by urban light pollution, we had a wonderful view of the night sky over Aberdeenshire. It was so beautiful I could have watched it all night! It's not until you get that far away from street lights that you realise how pale the sky at night is. I wish we had been there for the meter shower this coming week, it must be amazing to see it from there! Needless to say being woken up by the sunrise at 4.30 wasn't my favourite part of the holiday! I really need a blackout tent! You see we always had blackout … [Read More...]

Babies all together again!

By Leave a Comment

I don't get to join in with these link ups very often so I have to make the most of it when I can! With my babies living opposite ends of the country getting everyone to the same place at the same time takes organising 4 calendars, trains from Scotland, route planning from the West Midlands and me stocking up on enough tea and biscuits to sink a battle ship! But last weekend we managed it and in honour of G'dad T's 70th birthday we all converged on Keynko HQ and a splendid time was had by all! So here they are, my beautiful babies! What can I say, that I haven't said before? It … [Read More...]
