Huddersfield

Those of you that know Hamish will realise what I mean when I say he hasn't changed and that I don't know how his lovely wife Clair (C. A. Pratt) copes. The photo above is of Hamish's home club, he is still playing senior rugby, we were going to see him play on the 6th but he's injury at present. Hamish is a development officer for English rugby and wears all the English gear and drives around in a car with English written all over it, it just doesn't seem right. We had a good talk about it though, and he's infiltrating them and going to bring them down from within, it would appear they seem to be doing that all by themselves at present, Saturday will tell.
We stayed with Clair, Ally and Hamish for two nights, I think Hamish was a bit nervous about taking us home. I don't think Clair minded us dropping in with minimal notice, .........Clair had an interest story to tell us about the cat which I don't think Hamish liked her telling us. We had a great stay with Hamish and his family and they really made us feel welcome.
Here's the family, all off to work, Clair works for some IT company. Below is a couple of photos of an old park that backs on to their place.
Not sure what these ruins are from, it could be from the old railway that used to go through here.
If you walk to the top of the hill there is a massive park where we took the boys, (big Hamish included) to kick the ball around.
