Brilliant Bugs

This morning, after tutoring, I made a rhubarb crumble for Frankie's barbeque, and pizza for lunch. I haven't made pizza dough in absolutely ages, and I'd forgotten how incredibly fun it is to make! I never thought seeing some dough rise would make me so excited...!
Anyway, after pizza-ing, we (my Mother, Hannah and her friend Lorna) set off to go to this "Bugs are Brilliant" course thing at Hornchurch Country Park. There, they did pond dipping, meadow sweeping and tree shaking. I, on the other hand, took Henry to play, caught even more of a tan, and received about a million gnat bites.
It's a really nice today - Perfect weather for a barbeque! Awful weather for revision though. It's nearing to impossible to actually keep to my revision schedule. Never mind... I can only hope that I'll somehow find the motivation to do some tomorrow.
Ooh also, I kinda realised I need a new panorama photo for my blog. This one isn't exactly interesting, but it was the best I could muster up from a pretty un-interesting country park. Haha I just remembered, I found this huge dead fish in the water. It was the size of... I don't know, but its belly was all swollen, kind of like a water melon. Henry was pretty grossed out.
The ducks and swans and ducklings and flower cheered him up though:
