My Year in Photos – October 20th – “20 10 2010”
My Year in Photos – October 20th – "20 10 2010", originally uploaded by henweb. Today we welcomed in to the world my fourth nephew, little Milo Samson Elliss-Brookes. Born by caesarian section to my sister Lucy, he was a planned birth (if that makese sense) – so the bets on my sister and her…
My Year in Photos – October 19th – “Going underground”
My Year in Photos – October 19th – "Going underground", originally uploaded by henweb. Today was one of those (thankfully rare) days when I have to ditch my car and take the train in to work instead. Usually down to a meeting or something that will go-late in the middle of London, I shouldn’t really…
My Year in Photos – October 18th – “Like a fish out of water”
My Year in Photos – October 18th – "Like a fish out of water", originally uploaded by henweb. After a turbulent day, I was rather confused to find this little goldfish sat on my seat when I got home this evening. Turns out it’s a little water-squirter which my lovely mother sent to Robert today,…
My Year in Photos – October 17th – “Hunting for Gruffalo”
My Year in Photos – October 18th – "Hunting for Gruffalo", originally uploaded by henweb. Today we made what is fast becoming our annual Autumn visit to the Harcourt Arboretum, near Oxford.

My Year in Photos – October 16th – “Hole in the wall”
My Year in Photos – October 16th – "Hole in the wall", originally uploaded by henweb. This weekend’s big DIY job is the demolishing of a wall which has been covering over an under-stairs cavity. I say wall – it was actually an old door with some plaster-board pinned on top… badly. The previous owners…
My Year in Photos – October 15th – “We buy this one, Daddy?”
My Year in Photos – October 15th – "We buy this one, Daddy?", originally uploaded by henweb. During the week, Robert and I are usually the first people downstairs in our house, while Sara dries her hair. For the past few days, the first thing Robert has done when he’s got downstairs is open up…
My Year in Photos – October 14th – “Could be a 2 bottle night!”
My Year in Photos – October 14th – "Could be a 2 bottle night!", originally uploaded by henweb. I’m a bit grumpy today, for no obvious reason – lots of little things I think. It’s definitely a wine night though, and at this rate it might even be a two-bottler…! :D
My Year in Photos – October 13th – “Coffee Table Reading”
My Year in Photos – October 13th – "Coffee Table Reading", originally uploaded by henweb. I got this book for my birthday – well, I bought it with a book token I received from Sara’s gran, anyway. It’s a book of the various film posters artist Drew Struzan has drawn over the years, and I’d…
My Year in Photos – October 12th – “Reflecting on Chiswick”
My Year in Photos – October 12th – "Reflecting on Chiswick", originally uploaded by henweb. Today’s photo was taken as I wandered down Chiswick high road, and is of the snazzy sign outside our local Waitrose. It’s not very interesting I’ll happily admit, but it made me want to take a photo…
