Visitors

We've had an excellent weekend. I love it when people come to stay, especially people we haven't seen for a long time. This weekend we were visited by Nessa and Dib, all the way from Herfordshire. It never ceases to amaze me how you can not see someone for several years and then you meet up again and it's like you were only with them yesterday - it's just that you have a lot more to talk about!

The weather wasn't very kind to us, almost-constant grey skies, but we did manage to get out. We walked across Croyde beach and into the village for ice-cream. Shame everyone had their eyes shut for the photo though.

See, there is a patch of blue sky in this photo. This is Kitty and Caitlin clambering over the rocks. They got on very well, despite a 7 year gap between them.

And Ellie and Tabitha were thick as theives as well. There is only 9 months between them. On the second night they all decided to play musical beds and Caitlin shared with Kitty while Tabitha and Ellie crashed on the floor of Caitlin's room. Good job I made her tidy it up before they arrived. You couldn't see the carpet in there last week.
