Elderflower Cordial, National Champion again (!), the Paddington Experience, VE Day 80, Rugby, Taekwondo, Snowboarding in the Alps, and Family

 What else have we been up to?

We picked elderflower and made cordial



We spent a beautiful evening watching the world go by. We found a mole, lots of rabbit holes, a stream, and watched rabbits come out for their evening meal.

The Boy finished his tenth rugby season


And Papa and The Boy commemorated VE Day 80 with Cadets
