A lovely break

with The Portico.

We came down yesterday, arriving at 5 and heading straight out for a swim. Big proved that the swimming lessons are worth every penny as she discovered that she could manage without her float jacket. Fab. She also managed to jump in without anyone holding her!

Very late night for Big last night, and horrendously early morning, but she still coped very well with the long day today. Layla came around and we met up with loads of other MudPuddlers at the Diana Memorial playground in London. There was Nic, Barbara, Sarah, Jan as well as a few ppl who aren’t on the blogring (honest!). The children played excessively - Small spent the whole day just wandering off into the distance. Big found a conker, but then lost it (oops) and I did manage to speak briefly to some ppl in between wondering where Small was wandering (sorry Nic ;-) ).

Home for takeout, and hopefully most of the children are in bed. We’re indulging in a bit of laptop blogging, and there are pictures

    Noce piccies. Hope you all had a good day. Normally I would feel insanely jealous, but not too bad since we will have another little MP meet next week :-) Didn’t recognise Chris in his work gear, almist, but can’t be too critical as I do a good imitation of a suit myself ;-)
