Bosworth Battlefield

Rich, LA and I have spent the day at Bosworth Battlefield.

LA had a tree climbing session.



Then we got a little fed up with her...


The men of Ambion Parva, who came lunging their weapons at us.



Sir Acorn.

But the highlight of the day, was obviously, tracing a coat of arms and colouring it in.

LA and Rich have been making Hover discs.
Here's the video they made so that you can make them too.

Plants

Plants, Plants, Plants.
Yep, Plants.
LA and I have been doing a project on Plants. They are growing well...

We have geraniums, tomatoes and peppers in this "collection". The empty pot on the right is an ambitious attempt by LA to grow an apple tree ( I suspect there may be some plum stones in there too). The empty looking pots on the left are...

... hopefully going to be runner beans to plant in our vegetable garden. No signs of life yet though.

This is our herb collection, we have absolutely no idea which herbs these are, because we are so organised and obviously took notes as we were planting them... NOT!
Outside, our radishes have germinated and we are still waiting on the carrots, beetroots and lettuces. We still have peas, broccoli and cabbages to plant.

LA is lapping up this topic, although it seems she can remember to either water the plants OR feed the fish, not both.

She has also moved onto Level 4 of the Oxford Reading Tree, the vaguely organised lifestyle appears to suit us better.
