Wells
... lose permanent feeling in my feet. It seemed impossible to get warm. We went to Wells Golf Club for lunch, then said goodbye to Graham and Christine, before heading home to get changed for our family photo shoot. We all 'frocked up' and drove over to just past Meare to have some family portraits taken. Am excited to see how they turn out. Quiet night in tonight playing Rummikub, and pizza for dinner. Both Jen and Jonah are poorly with colds so they had an early ...
Nicky's 40th in Bath
Manic morning with Nicky's birthday. Ben had to leave for school at 8:15am and we were rushing to eat breakfast so that Nicky could open her presents. Ben and Abigail gave her pyjamas and a dress pillow for her bed, and Geoff & Jen re-decorated her bedroom as their present to her. We gave her a new gold watch with diamonds around the face. She was chuffed. After the school run, Nicky, Jen, two of Nic's friends, and myself went to Bath for the day. We parked ...

Think we're over the jet ...
Cornwall - Bodmin, Lanlivery & Dobwells
... clotted ice cream. They had a ball! Around 4pm we put our coats and boots on yet again and headed to see Geoff's Aunt Ann in Dobwells. Again, everyone had turned out to see us (not sure if we are a novelty or not??) and Anne's daughter and her family were there, and her son Richard as well. More tea, coffee, scones & biscuits followed. We left there around 6pm and arrived home around 8pm. Kids fell asleep 20mins after leaving. ...
