Flapping lips

Can't believe we've been here over three weeks already... time is flying. This weekend was a nice change to last few in that we geared down somewhat and took it just a dash slower. Friday night we went to the local driving range where Al and Chants showed us their stuff, and I showed Al how to break the head of his wedge. Sorry Al.


Saturday we visited the Milten Keens spending most of our time at the Xscape Centre which boasts and indoor snow ski slope and an indoor freefall ski-diving simulator. This thing was a blast! At 35 pounds for a 2 minute ride we gave it a skip and just sat outside for an hour or so watching the public give it a shot. You can't imagine how peoples lips and cheeks flap when they're hovering in a wind tunnel suspended by winds of 160km/h. Loads of laughs.
Sunday we visited The Open Door Church in St Neots. They are part of the New Frontiers Group. Had a great time and met loads of folks after the service. Confused loads of them with our "we are from East London" story.... in their minds our accents were anything but east London. The afternoon was spent having a pub lunch in the village of Ware with Alans friends Stephen and Sam. You can imagine the jokes... we're going to Ware Alan?
After a lovely evening walk earlier this week, this little guy caught our attention as he inspected the tread on the tyres of the neighbours car.
