twist n shout

today comprised of some daddy time with the girls which turned into a whinge fest of annoying proportions. We went for a bike ride to my favourite quiet spot,, the pedestrian crosssing on the railway inbetween basingstoke and oakley.. its a 20 minute bike ride and then a sit down with just the tweddling sound a signal box makes and the rustling of the trees.. and the song of the rails as the train approaches followed by a huge rush of sound and then quiet again.. love it..so what they were griping about the least said the better on that grr ungrateful lil ingrits . so the day needed rescuing so when in doubt go to Southsea...seaside...fish n chips...ice cream ... arcades....walk along the seafront ,, mini golf.. arhhh yes mini golf... a wise investment of 13 quid, siobhans average of 10 hits per hole and mine not much better.. remembered why after the last time we played mini golf why i vowed never to play it again ..lol.. .. love it.. been coming to southsea now for more years than i care to remember , its still hasnt lost its luster.
trip on the way back was the usual for this time of year,, a moths massacre... see them in the headlights hundreds of them queuing up to commit suicide...and what are moths made of ?? just try and wash them off the front of the car.. think they are made up partly out of superglue.
Promised the girls a sleep in the tent in the garden when we got back..dont do airbeds, sleeping on a airbed is akin to sleeping on a bed of nails, it is for comfort and a good nites sleep what Hannibal lecter is for fine dining .. dont do camping ...so for the girls ..i took one for the team .. within two minutes of settling down ,, shamara pipes up..theres something out there.. as the wind gently rustled the trees in the garden ...ok,, come here.. trouble is you have one , you have to have the other, .. theres me wedged inbetween the two of them all nite.. couldnt move a muscle.. somehow we managed to go through the nite.. but does it feel ive had a nites sleep.. does it be buggered. the things we do for our kids.
