Time to break a leg?

Carys got these for her birthday. At the time she was super excited about them, but also sensibly didn't want to try them out until after her ballet exam. After that she had school athletics and so they were put on the back burner again.

So today was the first time she has tried them out. She did ok. No broken bones, Mummy got her foot stood on and Carys bashed her knee, but we stopped whilst the going was good.

The afternoon was spent sorting the bit of soil down the side of the house and a bit of the front garden. The side looks good but I think it maybe a bit inviting for the local feline population.
