Allt-y-bela

For our late May bank holiday we chose to go to Wales with the Bertholds... having heard a lot of the Brecon Beacons we picked a lovely retreat (all for oursevels) near Usk and somewhat in the middle of nowhere!!

I could shout as loud as I liked and I was lucky if the cows heard me in the distance!!!


....the property was really rustic and accommodating with a lovely garden surrounding it that we explored in great detail..


On the Saturday we went to a nearby farm to take a look at their horses and ponies...


...and then one after the after we visited castles and lovely landscapes!


We had a rest for a nibble where we could...


...and sat back to absorb the beautiful nature around us!


Wales is very green and child friendly.  All the pubs we chose to pop into during our stay was very welcoming and always had a nice patch of grass where I could kick my ball!!


...with Dadda of course!


Give me that ball now Dadda!.. I'm off to have something to eat!!


Now I see what that incredible sound of bells was waking me up in the morning!!! There were hundreds of cows in our backyard!!

Sunny Hackney

London doesn't owe it's reputation to the weather but like most places when the sun is out it's just great!!  My neighbourhood, London Fields & Colombia market looked awesome!!


I felt so proud I could boost my colourful t-shirt and football to blend into the crowd!!

Tino in Zermatt

Taking advantage of Dadda's business trip in Zurich, Mamma and I joined him over the weekend and extended our stay to pop up to the mountains!

Really quite chilly up here despite it's May but it's always tempting to get your hands wet in fountains!!


Zermatt was a lovely surprise with homes made literally entirely of wood!


...Stocking even more wood under the houses to light fires to keep them warm!!


Very environmental friendly these Swiss, and very safe & child friendly these places seem to me...


Could this be a new home for me!?
