Some down time in the sun

---

After a hectic few days of pottering about (ha, get it?!) we have used the last few days to enjoy some relaxing in the sun. The kids all headed for Go Ape for some cousin bonding in the trees. Despite the dire predictions of ‘freaking out’, I’m told a good time was had by all…except Beeb who ‘came last’ on the zipline…I’m told it was weight-related rather than skill. I enjoyed a lovely brunch with my former work colleague Nicola and some shopping before heading home for an afternoon bbq in the garden (had to buy some more climate-appropriate clothing).

Lovely to catch up and see everyone and enjoy some sun in the garden, and a fire with marshmallows.

Next day was a very lazy start followed by a picnic and some cricket/rounders in the park. I think we could all agree that cricket was the winner on the day…or maybe it was rounders. But some prosecco, some food and some sun made for a lovely afternoon. Grown ups had a night out and kids had a movie and pizza night. What a great weekend.
