    Where is this picture taken then? Is it at in-laws? If so, cool deck and wendy house 🙂

      Has it really been more than two weeks since your last visit 🙂 ?

      The deck, wendy house, sand pit, table, stools and hammock chair were all set up by Ira’s parents for Anna (and her minders 😉 ) in their back garden. She also now has a big round paddling pool, which was great for her when the temperatures were hitting mid to high 30s this weekend!

        Oh, woops. No, not 2 weeks but in between trip to Gold Coast and big winter clean of house for landlady inspection and not being on the computer much in general means if I didn’t catch it when it was 1st or 2nd on your main page then I missed it – thought I’d gone and read most of the back posts but obviously not – sorry.

        Very cool though. Did Irina’s dad build it? It looks like it’s where the old swing used to be or is that still there further round?

    I try to make sure that each post is on the front page for seven days before it gets pushed off by newer ones.
    Irina’s Mum and Dad planned it all, and Igor (Losha’s Dad) managed a group of men from Ira’s Dad’s workplace to actually build it all up. It is located directly opposite the back door, near where you were told that a man should chop wood 😉 The swing is located towards the front of the house, but they are both situated next to the fence, just at opposite ends of the house.
    Anna’s minders? You’ve lost me. Dennis Waterman, Gary Webster and Lex Shrapnel weren’t involved in looking after Anna. ahhh, just re-read my previous comment. I meant the decking et al weren’t exclusively for Anna’s use, but also to provide a chill area for whoever happened to be looking after her at the time as well 🙂

      Ahh, I see. I had a vision of lots of babysitters all there at once to look after her. A bit like how a young princess of old would have had a dozen servants and ladies-in-waiting etc.

        No, baby sitting over here so far has only been Ira’s mum very occasionally. They are busy with work and gardening most of the time. Very grateful for when she does help though, as going to the QBP with Anna wasn’t really an option, and it was nice to have a few hours together without worrying about nappies etc.
