    We spent the bank holiday weekend at my parents in Cheshire and included a family visit to Chester Zoo on the Sunday. We all had a great time, the weather was good and it was nice to go out with all the family too :)

    Whilst there (not the zoo :))we also took the boys blackberry picking which was funny, they both ended up with purple fingers, but the outcome was a delicious blackberry and apple crumble made by my mum - yummy :biggrin:

    Here's a 3 photos from the zoo, I especially like the chimp that I caught seemingly in deep thought :)

              With a wife and 2 kiddies with a sweet tooth, the biskwit tin has plenty of reserves, never short of a tea bag or a coffee grain either! Anytime dude!

                  Fabulous pictures!

                  Isn't it wonderful to get away for a few days to recharge the batteries; glad a lovely time was had by all
