A Day at the Seaside

At the end of the Schools Summer Holiday this year Sue and I took Aiden and Evelyn (aka Beanie) to the seaside in the camper van for the day. They both wanted to go to the Sea Life Centre, play on the beach and then have chips in the camper van. And Why not.

Aiden had broken his arm  few days before but this did not stop him using my phone to take pictures and enjoy the day.

Wet Afternoon in Sheffield

It was a wet day so we decided to visit Sheffield where Nicki studied for her PHD.

We decided to head for the Millennium Gallery and have a cup of tea in the Winter Garden, a large temperate glasshouse. We got there just in time for a very heavy rain shower.

Dressing up at Lyme Park

Lyme Park is a stately home managed by the National Trust in Cheshire. When we arrived we found that there was an opportunity for Eloise and Imogen to dress up in period costume. They were really excited by this.

Lyme Park house is an Elizabethan House, famous, I am told, for Mr Darcy to emerge from the lake in a wet white shirt (1995 BBC Drama 'Pride and Prejudice' - Colin Firth), Cannot see why myself !!
