Where?

Just trying out my new PINK camera - little tiny Fuji with a BIG screen I can actually see without my glasses! Who can be the first to identify where it went for its first day out?

Rock Star in the making!

We had a street party last weekend - beautiful weather and the kids had water fights. Only thing wrong with this idyllic picture. Its Canada. And its the end of October. It should be freezing!!

Pip and his cronies have been the band to provide entertainment for the last few years. However they have all grown up and left home (sob) and Pip was in Montreal playing Rugby (Ivey won the tournament so he made up for the sad English loss to South Africa!). Anyway - back to the street party. Kudos to Timmy who stepped up to the mike and played and sang beautifully for the assembled company.

We can't wait for the Robinson Brothers to make it to the big time and keep us in our old age!!!

Robinson Hall of Fame

Hi everyone

A couple of quick pics to celebrate achievement this weekend.

Pip received his National Scholarship at a ceremony at Western University. And Chris completed the Toronto Half Marathon in 1hr 35 mins, finishing 196th out of 3500 runners, 163rd man over all out of 1736 male runners and 7th out of 158 men in his age group 50 -54. Nice going!!

Love

Final Cottage Fling

Hi everyone

Not such exotic travels as some of the rest of the Robinson clan recently... but we had a nice last trip to the cottage for Thanksgiving weekend. Last year we had Pop and Bev with us - and before that Pete & Paul. We raised a glass to all the generations.

This time Pip was welcomed back from Uni and we celebrated Timmy's birthday with some cottage neigbours.

Cottage is now all shut up until maybe we can sneak a week at Christmas.

Here are a few pictures to paint the scene:

Turkey and all the trimmings and a toast to absent friends.....Tim lights the candles with help from James & Riley next door.

And entertains on his new birthday guitar.The boys play Mine a Million (Chip's board game at least 40 years old!) - no TV allowed at the cottage...
And Pip braves the lake - brrr, but spot those Fall colours coming on!

Love to everyone!

Back from Singapore

Hi, Everyone,

Just a few pics from a wonderful holiday, and to wish belated Happy Birthdays to those I was away for - Chip, Pete, and Tim. Thank-you, Canada, for my pressie which was waiting for me this morning when I arrived home - lovely!

Am not sending pics of the consumption of Singapore Slings at Raffles because I enjoyed them too much and it shows! So instead I'm posting the highest man-made waterfall in the world at Jurong Bird Park; the cable-car ride over to Sentosa Island; and Izzy on a bumboat ride in Singapore Harbour. Kirsty and Iz had an horrendous flight home on the edge of the hurricane - Kev's not flying till today because his conference hadn't finished, so his flight will probably be affected also. Mine was just long - two hours longer than when I fly back from Shanghai!

Lots of love to All,

B.

Hey one and all

I know that we are long over due to update, so here are a couple of pics one is of our new dog "Cosmo" think we must be slightly mad, but we will figure it out as we go! he is a six month old Springer Spaniel and is everybit the 'puppy' ! The other is of Tyler at his first ever NFL Football game in downtown Indianapolis watching his new favorourite team the 'Colts' beat the Broncos, that smile was firmly placed on his face for the full 31/2 hours he was there! Hope all is well Happy Belated Birthday's to all you Robinsons wherever you may be! (I think the travelling thing must be from the Robinson side!) We think of you all often with much love Heidi Jamie Tyler and Maddie xx
