Gylly

The Smallest Boy has been desperate for a snorkel for ages. We got him one so he asked to go to the beach to test it. As Gylly has lifeguards, I decided to go there so I didn't have to swim. I did go in up to my knees and it was certainly braving!

Princess was having none of it so alternated between reading and searching for sea glass. The Boy refused to even leave the house so at least she did better than him.

MrRoly has been updating me regularly on his journey - he is out of practice at the proper travelling game. He got to Paddington late last night to find he'd missed the last Heathrow Express train so had to get a taxi to his Yotel. Then this morning he realised he'd forgotten to do online check in and ended up in the last seat of the plane - middle seat in the middle aisle on a full flight. Then they were late landing in Istanbul so had a mad dash to make their connection to wherever it is he is going. I am making sympathetic noises ;-)
