Happy Birthday To Me!

We went down to Canizarro Park in Wimbledon for a birthday picnic, and after much stress and worrying, it turned out to be a sunny day after all!
And with food enough to feed the masses, a delicious time was had by all.

Note: Apologies to Mr Warren, Tania, Pudding, Angela and Lisa, as we only hauled the camera out after they had left!

Szuszi kindly does not pull a "bunny ears" over my head.


We decided to form an impromptu Synchronised Myburghian Leap Team, in preparation for the London Olympics. Here we warm up with the Traditional Leap style.
The team consists of, from left:
Zsuzsi "Szexsi" Szilágyi
Steve "The Watson" Watson
Russell "Discombob" Gowlett
"Dangerous Dave" Bell
The 5th member, on photography duty, is Colleen "Snapper" Watson.

The party was also much enjoyed by our Russian friend, Mr Nutski and his comrades.

The team, who henceforce shall be known as "The Grasshoppers" get some wicked airtime, with the exciting "skateboard grab" technique.


I found a sure fire way of not blinking while having a photo taken!
Observe the gruesome wound on my forehead from cracking it into a cupboard!
The Grasshoppers work on a new technique developed by Zsuzsi, known as "The Hungarian Reverse Mirror In-Out-Up-Down Side Bicycle Kick"

Secret Agent 00-Nutski plans his nefarious raid. The sneaky fiend managed to get away with nearly all the cake!

Freestyle - And thats a confident appeal from The Watson there!

Colleen and Steve exhausted after some tough leaping and finger snapping!

What better way to warm down than with some Krshna breathing techniques.


After much experimenting, it was found that the best way to get a squirrel to pose, is by giving him a cherry.

Bunch of loonies at the party really!
