Jake's adventures with trees and the Welsh rugby team

Well what a great weekend! 

I (Jake) did a massive run on Saturday morning and most of it was up hill, we then spent the rest of the morning around some friends house, sitting in the sun and drinking coffee while Andrew (my running partner) and I recovered. 

In the afternoon we were doing some jobs in the Northern Suburbs and decided to get some fish and chips and sit on the cliffs watching the fishing boats come in – a little bit nippy but great end to the day.

On Sunday I decided to walk the talk and took the kids tree planting as part of the Living Legends event. The kids loved it and were really helpful, they planted (only the nice looking plants – per Molly's instructions), collected the rubbish, ate the sweets handed out to them and Alfie under Dad’s instructions very very nearly ate a worm.

We then stayed after the trees (2,500 of them) were planted to have a sausage sizzle with my work colleagues.

I then managed to squeeze in the first bit of the RWC 2011 events by taking the kids to the Welsh training sessions – Molly couldn’t work out why Wales were playing against Wales – I did say that was probably the only game Wales would win ;-)
