With another lockdown looming tomorrow, we really wanted to be able to mark Frances's birthday next week with some kind of treat. Yesterday we were hurriedly trying to find a stables for her to have a pony ride but with no luck, all fully booked. So we had to move to plan b today a trip to the Harry Potter shop! It turned out for the best. She had a lovely day. Blue skies, beach, fish and chips, ice cream an illegal beach run for Tammy! Then to top it off the Harry Potter shop. Phew. I feel slightly more relaxed about her birthday next week now.
