Crane Park

After breakfast, I drove my son to his piano lesson and then went to pick up daughter #1 from her friend's (where she'd had a sleepover). I then dropped her off for her piano lesson. My son has got three exams tomorrow and he claims that he has spent the entire day revising. He also has his first written Welsh GCSE tomorrow but he refuses to do any revision for that.
Daughter #1 went to Kingston with her friend to buy some sunglasses from Primark. Daughter #2 was really bored and all her friends were busy. I offered to take her and the toddlers next door to Crane Park to paddle in the river. The little girl fell (fully clothed) into the river. She also dropped her bucket and it went downstream. We ran along the river to try and catch it but it was way too fast. At one point, I jumped into the river and sank knee deep into black mud. I also got stung by stinging nettles.
I had to return the kids home completely soaked, covered in mud and bucket-less.
In the evening, hubby cooked a whole chicken on the barbie and we had dinner in the garden. Long may this weather last.
