Summer in the UK


I didn't get to update the blog whilst in the UK-obviously having too much fun. I have attached some pictures below of our escapades. We had a great flight over with Emily occupied throughout with DVD's and oodles of chocolate. We spent two weeks in Norfolk when it did nothing but rain but we did manage a few hours on the beach. The rain provided a great excuse to spend lots of time in tea shops eating cake and drinking tea. We then spent a week in Melton, a few days in Leeds and the rest of our holiday with family in Basingstoke. Emily had lots of fun catching up with friends and relatives and spending time outdoors. The flight home wasn't quite so successful and a night flight will not be repeated. Emily didn't sleep, was sick several times and I had to resort to a large glass of red wine at 4am in the morning to see me through the rest of the flight. It was a shame it rained (and rained and rained) but we had a great time being back in England although it was very nice to return home to some routine and hot (hot!) sunshine. Hopefully the attached photos will provide a summary of our adventures.

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside

I'm going to try this tea and cake malarky - mummy seems to like it

Oh yes I see why - delicious!
