Clive and Angel are back in Dominica, with their new son Asher, for a month-long visit.

To celebrate Clive's Birthday, they had a Halloween Party... It's the first time we've celebrated Halloween in quite a while!

Meanwhile, Simon was in Las Vegas so he couldn't join our Dojo ;-)

Andrew's first Grading with Purple Dragon Don Jitsu Ryu was held on Saturday, May 3rd. There were more than 40 students who graded and all passed!

The Belt Changing Ceremony was held at the Dojo last Thursday. Here is Andrew receiving his Yellow Belt from Instructor.

Meet Tashi Cassiopiea Nutella Kody

Andrew has a dog of his own!
And lots of new responsibilities to go with it. So far, so good, but it's only day two. And Nemo is quite as enthusiastic as the rest of us... yet.

A Triangle Poem (Long 'A')

I
am
alive
today.
We get our
Pay day.
I like to be in shade.
I live life this way.
I adore eating cake.
