Cake and golf!

The boys stayed with me again this weekend, George went to a party at quasar so I just had Ben for the first couple of hours. The plan was to make a chocolate cake with Ben but I soon realised that I didn`t have a cake tin(I was sure that I did), so we went and got a new one after picking the George up. The boys helped whisk the mixture and the cake turned out really well.
On sunday it was Bens turn to go to a party. So I took George to a short par 3 golf course in Orpington. George took about 13 or 14 shots at the first including about 7 putts and was very frustrated but after that he played pretty well. He had a couple of 5s and a 6. He even his tee shot at the seventh beyond the green (hes usually short partly because some of the holes are too long for him). A good 7 iron form about 50 yards out onto the 8th green capped a good day.

Birthday Boys!

My bithday was on saturday and Georges was yesterday. I had a quiet one with the boys which included an Indian takeaway, watching the England - Kazakhstan game and also a film called Jumper which was pretty good.
I saw the boys after they finished school so I could give George his present which was a nintendo ds and some games, unfortunately hes a Chelsea fan and his mother bought him the kit. I`ve tried to educate him into supporting the mighty Charlton Athletic but to no avail.

Positive Max!

Ive got a touch negative lately, my friend feels that since I`ve stopped concentrating on my fitness I`ve become less positive about myself. So my goal for the next few weeks is to be more positive and happy with it.
I took the boys to the driving range a few days ago and weve started playing this game where we have a chip shot each from near to the green and the nearest to the hole wins. Amazingly Ben put his chip shot sraight into the hole to seal to deal!
