A Photo Every Hour - Saturday 18th November

November's photo an hour day fell (as it does almost every year) on a carnival day down here in Somerset. We were off to Glastonbury carnival that evening!


Here's what the day looked like...


9am - In our house, trains are "go go's"

10am - Tupperware sorting is an essential part of any morning.

11am - Prepping for redecorating the hallway.

12pm - Book repairing.

1pm - Boring picture alert!

2pm - Top of the (thankfully unlit) fireplace is apparently a good storage location.

3pm - Three pairs of socks and thermal leggings for the carnival.

4pm - Parked up and ready to kill some time before the procession in Glastonbury.

5pm - It's a bit soggy...

6pm - Still raining...

7pm - The carnival still takes place, whatever the weather!

8pm - Still damp!

9pm - Back to the car after the procession (where we were watching, the carnival had finished but where the car was parked, it was still going past!)

10pm - And homeward bound...

Jane set the December date as Saturday 16th - you can find the round-up for that day here :-)

A Photo Every Hour - Saturday 16th December

Behind again with blog posts and photo an hour... What on earth does the year think its doing going by so fast? Anyway, hope you all had a lovely Christmas and are planning a fab New Year :-)

December's festive photo an hour date fell on Saturday 16th - we were off to the theatre and to see Father Christmas!


Here's what the day looked like...


9am - It was a hat-wearing sort of day apparently.

10am - Putting pen to paper on the sacred Christmas issue of the Radio Times.

11am - Sorting out Christmas presents.

12pm - On our way out to Bristol to the theatre.

1pm - A sunny Bristol sky!

2pm - Waiting for our lift home after a brilliant performance of 'Ice Ice Baby' (Bristol Old Vic's Christmas show for under 3's)

3pm - Trying to find orange coloured decorations for our rainbow-themed Christmas tree!

4pm - On our way to find Father Christmas.

5pm - Taking Lily back to the fertility clinic where she was created to drop off a Christmas present and also visit their Santa's Grotto (where our consultant was playing the big man!)

6pm - Home for a cup of tea via the shops where we managed to pick up some 30p dairy-free custard doughnuts! #win

7pm - Nursery rhymes before (what we hoped was) bedtime...

8pm onwards there were no pics as someone didn't want to play ball going to sleep! All my photos would've been of a darkened room with a toddler stumbling round trying to find toys to play with...
