Sherlock is Kelly’s dog. But Sherlock spends a lot of time sitting on my lap chewing on his toys. I had not taken a photo today, and decided that it was easier to just take one with the G12 held at arms length.
Kelly made a berry cheese cake to take to a birthday celebration lunch for a family friend. This is her attempt, and a really good effort – it was delicious, to make this after first tasting it at Christmas time when it was made by Kendall, my niece.

After a discussion yesterday with a work colleague, thought that one of the first galleries I would build in my new website would be some fireworks.
