12th- Aug, The baby is here, Smiles, Shops, Parks and the DNA....

Mike and Cheryl are back, and suggest that we all go out for Sunday lunch with their two mums Beryl and Pim. So its off to Kingston park in Perth. We eat at a restaurant in the Park called The Zammia, (its named after the Zammia Tree) and is owned by friends of the family, I would reccomend this place. The meal was yum yum and the company fab..

Anyway, no more written stuff to read, just enjoy the piccies.
