My Amazing Oscar

This is a dedication of acheivement for my amazing son Oscar who despite his profound disabilities lives life to the full. I wanted to share the magical and inspiring attitude of my young man, who has shown no matter what any profession or person tells you that you probably won't be able to take part or be included in regular hobbies and daily activites that we all take for granted, you have to try it for yourself and make your own decision. The proof here is that so far Oscar has not found many that he truly could not take part in , in some way or another, for example riding the Pirates of the Carribean ride at Walt Disney World Orlando, alligator seeing in the everglades, taking up Judo, swimming with dolphins, riding the quad bike up the stables and being one of 14,231 pirates who reclaimed the Guniess World Record in 2012.

IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY JOB TO MAKE THE CHRISTMAS PUDDING...

 
I love this tradition, since I was 3yrs old it has been my privilege and job to make the family Christmas pudding, I love the smell of grated orange and all the spices that go into our family pudding.  I don't really like the gooey sugar stage and I now get my mum to use a wooden spoon.

 
I love the smell of mixed spices, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove, I know Christmas is coming.
 
 
This is the fruit ready to soak up all the orange juice and brandy I poured in.

 
4 hours in the steamer and Wow this is the best ever Christmas pudding I have ever made!

 
Grandad set the pudding on fire!
