The Blade of Kansas..
I recently spent some time in Kansas City attending a trade show with my Boss, who has a bit of a reputation for wicked sense of humour, so when at the end of the second day we were there he said “ how do you fancy going Axe throwing” I was waiting for him to add to that. He actually looked serious, not that that is an indication that he was not still winding me up, so I said “Really”.
But he actually, for once, was being serious! So when he showed me the web site and said that he had been there the previous day, before I got into town, I said yes obviously.
Off we went to a place called Blade & Timber where we were shown various ways to throw axes at a timber target and several games that could be played. We had a great, if unexpected evening and we also found out it’s not as easy as it looks when they show you.
That’s all for now, hoping you stay on the right side of the axe.

Sand in my socks!
Another lap of the sun and another year older for all of us, but namely today the youngest in our family, little Finley Arthur. Finn’s come a long way in his two years and is now speaking in short sentences, but usually starting with “duggee, hey daddy duggee, is duggee daddy, look!”.

My late daddy was a bombardier on the RAF, Great Britain Royal Air Force, Lancaster bomber during WWII. Being a bombardier, he was upfront in the plane with his Norden bombsight being the bomb aimer to help liberate the world from the Axis powers. He was there on the “morning” of D-Day off the coast of France helping bombard the fortifications along the coast.
