DIY Pot Pourri

Drying out the rose petals

Mixing it with cinnamon and adding scents



What does it smell like? Well a bit pongy to be honest! I think I will buy some if need be in future :)

Wii Workout

Thats my Wii Mii in the background taking a swing as I take one, the tennis and boxing really make you work up a sweat!

Here's a video of me playing Wii Tennis

Driving Range

I haven't done anything to do with golf for over 22 years so we went to a local driving range and got 60 balls to whack, Steve gave me tips on my swing and how to hit the ball, only about 1 in 6 went where i wanted it to and my arms ached by the end of it ...not to mention the blister i got on my hand!

How to tie a noose

Trolling & Fly fishing

Trolling
ooo which ones do we need?

It's all about gang trolls, led lines, depth monitors, fish arches, nymphs, shrimp, dry flies, coloured lures, worms

The fly fishing looks pretty neat the way you swoosh it in the air a lot ..I couldn't do it!

Diabolo

I haven't got any pics yet as I was learning the Diablo and I could do that and take pics at the same time, hopefully my friend Sarah will have a decent one. I didn't get too far, just getting it spinning, tried to chuck it in the air and failed several times but am thinking of getting one of my own to practice with.

Here's my teacher doing some tricks

Camping

So I learned the 3 rules of Camping: Keep Warm, Eat Well and Sleep Well..and my own one... bring lots of marshmallows..they are awesome!

Star Gazing

I got this map and could actually work out where Cassiopeia and Cepheus were!

Origami

So I not only created some Origami animals which is much harder than you think but I released them out into the wild....Lighthouse Park

Steve and Babette joined in creating some and we found that Steve was really good at it in a weird rain man sort of way.
