Summer- busy times! Keeping positive and making wonderful memories.
A trip to Southwold - what a beautiful place and a family reunion of sorts for Neil and his mum with cousins. A day on the beach, a game of cricket and rounders and a picnic and it didn't rain. The skies threatened but it just missed us!
 |
| The cousins - there were 14 of us! What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. |
 |
| Southwold - look at that big sky! |

| The famous beach hut photo - an iconic photo of Southwold. |

The last day we were at the Marathon in London - we had a great spot in Martin Le Grand near St Paul's. We saw the athletes run past 3 times and what a pace they maintain.

A day trip as tourists in London with Eleni (Neil's neice), Ellen(Eleni's friend) Tracy (our friend) and her 3 girls Nicola, Ellie & Rebecca. The three older girls went to the Londin dungeon while us oldies took Rebecca on the cable car between the North Greenwich Arena and the Excel. A lunch at GBK in Clink St - yummy falafel burger for me which was delicious and a great option for non meat eaters.
