August 27th 2015 - Places to go and people to see

Today has been a busy day.  The title should be people and places but it didn't sound right!  We are staying at one of our friends houses.  We had told her that we had few things to do etc and would be back just after lunch.  However, plans changed and she didn't get my message.

We started off by going to see my mum's best friend and the godmother to all 3 boys as planned.  Blake decided that he liked her pot of stones in the garden - not just stones but crystal types, clear fish etc, asked where they were from, his godmother didn't know and told him to take them.  So he filled a bag and said they would look nice in his fairy garden.

From here we went for Dinner with my Nan at a local pub.  The food was nice and the service was mostly good, but it took over 20minutes to pay for it because the people in front of us were argueing over the cost of their bill and there were 3 members of staff trying to sort it out.  This is where our plans changed as we were meant to be heading back, but my sister rang me and asked if we would go and meet her.

We went to meet my sister as not seen her since january and she asked if we wanted to go to Fineshade Woods in Northamptonshire, sounds far but it's only about 20minutes drive from Peterborough.  It wasn't anywhere we had heard of, which is a shame as it was really nice and certainly somewhere we would have gone when we lived that way.

We took out my Wheels so that I didn't have to walk and my sister said that I had a "granny mobile" - I don't care! lol!  We went round the woods to a tree house where the boys played for a while, lil man got stuck and had to be rescued from the top of it.  we then headed back to the smaller play area for a little while.

My friend we are staying with rang to check we were ok as she had expected us back a few hours before and she said she hadn't got my message.  She was glad we were ok but she was going out but told us how to get in house etc.  We were on our way to car when she rang anyway but we needed to go supermarket for party food for tomorrow so said would be an hour or so. It took us ages to pay in Morrisons as they had very few tills open and long ques!
