Hello all,
Managed to get a bit more time on here !
Joan's at the docs, Carol's emigrated again ! pmsl Oh and by the way, as was pointed out to me in no uncertain terms, the Mackem is Kaz (I stupidly called her a Geordie !). Helen, I've no doubt , is slaving over a hot potato peeler ! Kaz is probably returning from her VVVPV after the bank holiday weekend and Hi Kay !
Kay, tell the grandparents to mind their own business matey ! It's your life and you're a big girl now, or hadn't they noticed ! Or were you referring to the grandparents of your charges ?
Hi Neffy, hope you're OK, and Hi to Ali in Australia, hope you're OK as well.
Lasgo, hope you're coping with that extra mouth to feed !!
Well I had a good bank holiday weekend - the bl---y sun made an appearance ! Very glad we've got a VVVPBH, cos the ice cream hut (which also does tea and coffee) was pulled out of the place! Their hut is only about 50yards from ours ! The icecream they sell is made on the Holkham estate - and it's gorgeous stuff, with all sorts of flavours, but they're quite expensive I think at £1.50 each !
I have never seen Wells-next-the-sea beach as full of people as it was on Sunday, and I felt very glad that we had our own beach hut and consequently our own bit of beach in front ! Andy was able to fly his 'delta' kite, but he had to go quite a way along the sand to get safe space - it's a good job the tide was well out, and people were able to spread out and not be crammed in. The exodus at the end of the day was not unlike the M25 !! The beach road which is the only access to the beach carpark, just past our caravan site, had a mile long queue of cars with people wanting to get home. The hold up was caused by the junction in Wells at the quay. I have never seen the town so busy in the 30 or so years I've have known it.
I've taken a few piccys with my digital camera which I hope to download a few on here when I come back. I've also done some filming with my camcorder, but I'll have to sort out how to transfer that so that you can see 'moving' piccys as well.
Well I am still learning stuff you know!
Well even though I'm away on holiday, I seem to have been on more than our Carol !
Helen you take care with your bad back! Kaz I hope you had a good bank holiday in your VVVPV, Joan thanks for the emails and hope stuff is OK at docs.
Carol if you are around on Sunday, I may be able to get on MSN at last !
All of you have a good week
It's cloudy here today but I think the sun is trying to break through, so I may be back to the beach this afternoon! Hope to get on FG tomorrow morning around 10 am. The library closes here in about 5 minutes today so I'm off now .
