Uncle Tim and Heather invited us all to join them for lunch yesterday at the Hobbit in Norland.

It must be nearly 15years since we have been to the hobbit – the last time being mummy, daddy and great grandma and great grandpa 🙂

The owners have just (in 2013) completely renovated the place and it really is nice inside – that said it was pretty nice the last time we were there 🙂

Sadly there was no Steak pie on the menu but the food was pretty good – the deep fried Brie was a little strange – was a bit like beer batter (without the beer if that makes any sense) or fish and chip shop batter.

It was great to have all of us together for a meal and then Tim and Heather very kindly paid for us all – thanks guys 🙂

Finished off with a coffee over at Tim and Heather’s place at the foot of Wainhouse Tower 🙂

A great morning / early afternoon.

Uncle Tim and heather located this rather fun card game for the boys for Christmas 🙂

The first game resulted in granny cuckoo being the Smelly Nappy baby – the kid found it highly amusing to shout “Smelly Nappy baby” at Grandma 🙂

On Sunday night the Xbox stopped working – it appeared that the power brick was not able to supply the Xbox with enough juice.  Simon set about diagnosing early on Monday to find that sadly the power supply was fried and needs replacing – GREAT timeing 🙁

It seems that the power supply unit is not something that can be purchased from the usual outlets and so the only option is online 🙁

Simon ordered one yesterday lunchtime and INCREDIBLY it arrived this morning to save the day 🙂

The boys will probably not want to play on the Xbox tomorrow but you can bet that if they do get any new Xbox items from F.C. and want to play with it, we would have been in BIG trouble…. 🙁

All’s well that ends well thankfully 🙂
