The Great Walker Takes A Tumble

You may be aware that my family and a group of friends travelled into darkest Derbyshire last weekend for some walking.

I was going to blog about the experience, which will now have to wait.

My Son, and walker of great standing, is now not standing so well.

On a day out with Mum, Brother and Sister, the big fella cracked his knee open AGAIN!

This is the 3rd time this particular bendy bit has been bashed over the past 12 months. A year ago, just before a trip to Austria he cut it open, and probably should have gone to hospital, but his Mum and Dad made an executive decision not to bother.

This time, however, we did bother and the brave soldier now has 9 stitches in his knee. This may scupper his nocturnile escapades during his week away with Church.



In tribute to his efforts on Saturday, here he is taking a well earned break. There's a prize for correctly guessing what he is eating.

Well done Joe!
