After 4 months of swimming classes the wee man was ready to try an underwater photo shoot.

The Times Of Sand

A first visit to the beach (a sweltering hot day in Edinburgh, believe it or not) brought confusion, investigation and finally delight at the wonders of sand.


Serengeti Scotland

And with the Tourney Grandparents on a visit, Maxwell met Lions, Elephants and Chimps at the Safari Park.

Of course he spent more time trying to pinch dad's ice cream than looking at the animals.

Engineering Is All About Taking Things Apart And Knowing How To Put Them Back Tog...Oh, What Is That Other Shiny Object Over There?

Maxwell's thoughtful and dextrous approach proves ideal for dismantling all types of valuable items foolishly left within reach by his parents.

Re-assembly does not appear to come as part of the Toddler package.


Backpacking In Turkey

A first family holiday to Turkey where Maxwell drove a hard bargain over mint tea with carpet salesmen in the Grand Bazaar, examined the Frescos in the Blue Mosque and dipped his toes in the Mediterranean (with flotation assistance from Sponge Bob Squarepants).

Baby 2 On The Way

News of a second baby Campbell on the way was met with excitement by the parents and seemingly a little apprehension from the young Thorster.

Rock On!

Any worries were forgotten by a trip to a rock festival outside London to see Robin's band, The Aliens.

With a toothbrush in one hand, a beer can in the other and (most importantly) headphones to block out all noise, they actually don't sound too bad!!!

Toothy Grin

The emergence of 4 chompy teeth help make short work of favourite treats - chunks of carrot and broccoli.

He's a health food nut!

First Film Appearance

Featuring the trademark crab crawl and a first-ever recognition of his rubber ducky during bath time!


One Small Step For One Small Man

With his first birthday approaching, Maxwell rose from his crab-like-but-mercurial crawling and began to take his first Frankenstein-esque steps.

Here 3 generations of Campbell boys crank out the Mozart Kagelstatt Trio, with Maxwell providing some incisive avant garde enhancements to the piano part.

Oh What Fun, I'm 1!

Fun, that is, until we poke our finger into the candle on our birthday cake and learn a harsh lesson about 'Hot! Hot!' things...

Happy Birthday Maxwell!
