Half Term almost over

It is done. Have tried to do best I can to amuse under the circumstances.

The awful thing is that half term is so much easier when nothing is open. Previously it was an elaborately planned, intricately woven mesh of visits to Diggerland, Cinema, visits with friends and or tennis camp. That’s if we weren’t travelling ..

Board (Bored?) Game “Ticket to ride” x 2. Bike rides x 3. Horse rides x 3. Walks – (local) many. Cookery, pancakes, cake making and cake eating x 2 . Ping pong x 1. Identifying wild flowers (snowdrops and primroses)x 1.

Last year in Feb half term we defected from SW to old haunts in south east. Year before – to California using air miles or ” Avios”

Year before that – skiing. So hard on the joints! Seems my life was one of perpetual motion. Packing and unpacking suitcases and constantly on the move. Was I on some kind of frenzied treadmill?

This motionless era is so much easier……we have barely got in the car. Savings on petrol alone phenomenal.

Brisk country walk at half term.
