Nonetheless, we hope to be hale and hearty in time for our upcoming week-long holiday to Wales! We will be spending the first week of August in Borth, a few miles north of Aberystwyth (pronounced 'Abber-ist-with' for our non-UK readers) .
In other news, since the last post, Gareth finished his run of After Gilgamesh to great success and is currently reprising his role for a 10 day long summer theatre festival called MESH
Wendy has completed two excavations, both on Bronze Age sites. The most recent was finished this week and included a Beaker burial, a first for Wendy, as she removed a Beaker pot intact and excavated a very badly preserved 3700 year old skeleton! The other dig was in June on the Channel Island of Sark
Also in June, John and Gareth took a three day 'guys weekend away' to Haven Holiday park where they did archery, fencing, swimming and generally had a great time.
Also The girls's primary school held a cricket tournament. At left, Fiona is bowling out her opponenet, right is Bronwyn just before batting a few runs, and below Bronwyn and her team won the trophy, presented by local cricket heroes. Finally,Fiona and Enya console themselves with tasty marshmallows!
The following week, Bronwyn and Fiona played in the school Samba band as they toured through town, and the next day Bronwyn played in the Cowley Road festival, where she also met some interesting carnival creatures!
We got interviewed for the local paper and you can read it here, about a third of the way into the article.
well that's probably enough news and pictures for now, we'll put some stuff up after we get back from Wales. Have a great summer!
