A quick mention for all the new 365'ers that are joining in this year. I mainly share Fifi (12) though she is getting less and less now. Bob (8) and Minky and Dinky the boy/girl twins at thirteen months.
So here we go.
1st Jan
Gosh it is miserable, my poor chickens are beginning to grow webbed feet outside, had planned on going out with the kids today to make a Country kids post but its just way to wet and miserable. So when I popped over to pick Bob up there was a mad half hour going on in the house. Bob and Minky were playing tickle with the feather duster and Dinky was playing peek a boo while leaning on daddy. Fifi was lying on the couch where up until we went in Minky had been asleep on top of her.

2nd Jan
Had to nip into town to change over a pair of trousers to a larger size, and as we had been cooped up most of the day yesterday decided to go for a walk along the river while we were there.A good test against the wind for my new jacket. There has been one cache that has avoided my detection since I first started looking last March. It is normally a very busy area making hunting discretely difficult, but today it was quiet so had time to look.
Really need to get out and do some more geocaching.

3rd Jan
Whilst in the shop changing the trousers I spotted these, in the sale for fifty pence for eight fifty gram bags, so I bought them. Not than any of the yummies that came into the house for Christmas have been touched, but I do rather like these t could not resist at that price.

DeleteFour years of 365 - wow, well done!! I love the idea of geo caching, I think it something we may have a go at when the kids are older and we have a car!!!
ReplyDeleteit is a great hobby, plenty of exercise and fresh air and finding lots of interesting things as you go apart from the caches.
ReplyDeleteYour poor chickens, we have that weather here today. Happy New Year

ReplyDeleteI am exactly the same with bargains, despite trying not to buy any naughty things i coudn't resists two large tubs of biscuits for £1.25 each!!!

DeleteIt's sure been wet and horrid.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh need to try geocaching sounds great fun

ReplyDeletelook forward to seeing yours as well.
DeleteGeo caching is certainly on our list to try this year.
ReplyDeleteThe children love Randoms and our house is always a madhouse.
Well done on completing four years, what an achievement
you really should try it, a great outdoor activity and free more to the point.
DeleteI hear you about Chickens growing webbed feet lol mine are the same at the moment. I really must take my kids Geocaching again they loved it when I took them a few years back.
ReplyDeletemaybe duck eggs may have been a better idea in this country
DeleteWe've never been geocaching, it always sounds like a great thing to do though. It is great that you have completed Project 365 before, what a fantastic collection of photo memories you must have! It is my first year doing it. Hopefully I can keep up with it :-) Great find in the Randoms-yum!
ReplyDeleteyou will find it addictive and be onto year 2 before you realise it, it is a great thing to look back on.
DeleteOh wow Ive heard about geo catching, it sounds fun and even looked apparently there are two just round the woods at the back of our house but have never got round to looking into it.
ReplyDeleteits great, very addictive, find them - you WILL want to find more
DeleteFab photos!
ReplyDeleteGeocaching sounds like a lot of fun but it is something we've not tried....
For that price I couldn't refuse those Randoms either :D x
it is amazing fun. No they were a bargain to be had..
DeleteHappy New Year! Fourth year of #365 wowee! my second :) those sweeties are a bargain!
ReplyDeletewell your wee blog is not as old as mine, not be long ti you are at years, no reason really to stop.
DeleteFab photo of the madness and twins! I really hope to keep up with you this year.
ReplyDeletelove family moments of madness, really sum up what live is all about.
DeleteI've never tried geocaching. I must do that one day. I love Randoms too! They are lovely. #Project365
ReplyDeleteyes you really must, I went from the phone to a GPS machine as it was so much fun and saved using all your data
DeleteCongratulations of four years of #Project365, that's impressive. This will be year 2 for me.
ReplyDeleteWell done on finding the elusive cache, I must say I'm intrigued my geocaching. I may have to give it a whirl before the year is out. x
year 2 will soon become year 4, it just becomes a very great way of life.
DeleteI can't believe how big the twins are. It seems like just yesterday you were announcing their arrival!
ReplyDeleteI know 13 months old, he is a holy terror, she is so quiet in comparison
DeleteI really like the idea of geo caching, great find :)
ReplyDeleteyou really should try it is amazing fun for all ages
DeleteCongratulations on reaching year 4 - great that you've managed to keep it going and Happy New Year!
ReplyDeletethank you, it is easy to keep it going when you get pleasure out of it.
DeleteFabulous that you found that cache at last. It often feels like one mad half hours after another in my house! Looking forward to another year of 365 :)
ReplyDeletemad half hours are such good fun for everybody involved
DeleteI like how the sweets are balanced with a satsuma.
ReplyDeletethe twins are getting big x
lol, hadnt thought about it that way, I had thought size perspective.
DeleteWe still have so much opened Christmas rubbish to wade through it is quite ridiculous! I'm going to sort out the unopened over the weekend and take it to the foodbank as we've discussed before.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up to Project 365 and good luck for the forthcoming year.
a food bank will save the need to feel obligated to eat it all just cos. Good decision.
DeleteMad half hours are standard in rubbish weather here too! Really want to try geocaching this year well one on finding the elusive one!
ReplyDeleteyou really should get out and try it its such a fun hobby
DeleteWoo - so us Grans are back for another year!!
ReplyDeleteI approve of the Randoms - I like them too, a bit like Haribo!
yes us only two sets of grandparents doing it need to stay united. Glad your back as well.
DeleteI think always go a bit stir crazy being indoors! But so do i so thats ok! x
ReplyDeleteI hate being stuck in all day, I get so bored if I dont get out.
DeleteThe twins are so cute :) #project365
ReplyDeletethaank you, but yes I have to agree they are
