A big dream

Thanks for the tip off Smithski - The Dream is a stunning piece of art. With added poignancy as there were over 1,000 men working this place when it was a colliery when we were nippers.

Great day today at Blue Planet and then into Liverpool, literally into Liverpool as we had a tour on the Yellow Duckmarine which spends much of its time splashing around the Albert Dock. Eve was given a watergun by the tour guide so she was allowed to soak people, she was in her element.

Hopefully they'll collapse soon so me and Mrs Smith can leave The Grandparents in charge and sneak out for some liquid refreshment.
