Dedication Service for Faith Lennox – 26 September 2010
We were invited along to a special thanksgiving and dedication service at St Peter’s Church, for the daughter of good friends of ours – Julie and Andy.
Below are a few photos from the service.

A day in Bournemouth – 18 September 2010
Why am I putting a blog together for a day that we spent in Bournemouth over a year ago?
I’ve been taking photos for many years now, and, until Fotopic hit the buffers, I was storing them online there. Since then, my collection has moved to Pikfu, although plans for further development here seem to have come to a halt also.
So, I’m faced with a mountain of photos from September 2010 onwards with nowhere for them to go – hence the Bournemouth posting!
I can’t actually remember much about the day itself apart from the fact that it was the first time that we’d been down since April that year. It was also the day that Dad went back into hospital.
Here are a few shots from the day:

As well as continuing to add new material, I’ll also look to ‘backfill’ older photos into here.
Sounding Arch – 12 September 2010
On a sunny, autumnal afternoon we drove down to the river to see the Sounding Arch at Maidenhead.
Rebekah and Holly enjoyed playing by the river but Emily seemed less impressed.

Afternoon visit to Cliveden – 11 September 2010
As summer drifted slowly into autumn, we took advantage of a sunny afternoon and went up to Cliveden for a few hours.
