Billy the Umpire.



Whenever Lady M and I play ping-pong, Billy acts as umpire. He is totally fascinated by the game.

Here he is watching over the boys as they play a few games.


Later there were driving lessons on the lawn. 

After a couple of hours driving up and down, Kimbo had had enough, and hid the keys. Below was their response; etched into the Pine pollen!


Tomorrow the boys are cooking supper (Pasta), and we'll have a night-time fire up at Dangerous Fun.

I'm exhausted.

  1. They prefer a car on a bicycle, how understandable. I have the same car only in white, it is easy to drive.

    1. They used to love driving my mower, now they have progressed to greater things. It won't be long before they have their own.

  2. I can understand Billy's love of tracking the ball. One day he will jump up and catch it in mid air. Soon you will have to get some sheep or chickens for him to herd.

    1. Our last dog, Bok, barked and barked when we played. Billy just watches avidly.

  3. I was looking forward to reading about the first adventures. Wasn't disappointed. Driving lessons on the lawn and cooking. They have grown fast

  4. It sounds as though you play ping pong a lot. Haven't played it for years.
    I seem to remember you driving quite young.

    1. We do, but not for long; just 10 mins at a time.

  8. Happy days. Reminds me of the time when our teenage girls would drive our old Volvo estate around the courtyard.

    1. Kids can't wait to get their hands on their parents' cars. I was just the same.

  9. Oh my, the boys are teenagers! They were just toddlers a few years ago. Billy is growing also but I bet his puppy ways are great entertainment for you all.

    1. The boys are having great fun with him. It could last for over another 10 years or more.

  13. I can visualise Billy's head twisting side to side as the ball is hit from one end to the other.
