 Yesterday morning we were at the park, just as we were last Saturday.

We parked up by the tennis courts and walked across the cricket and football pitches until we arrived by the river.

As per last week there were people out on the water, but they weren't getting travelling under their own steam, these were taking a more leisurely option.

Talking of taking things in a leisurely fashion S decided a little lie down was in order, not that it looked like the comfiest of spots, but she was happy enough.

The swans and gulls were out in force and gobbling up the bread which was being thrown for them

Whilst in the vicinity last week I had spied a notice for the re-launch of a local cafe.
Our afternoon was spoken for as S had been invited to a birthday party so we needed something to do which was local and would get us out and enjoying the surprisingly warm day.
Popping down to the park for a little walk and then visiting the cafe seemed like a good plan especially as part of the re-launch day there would be free ice cream tastings.
Loved the ice cream balloons they had as part of the decorations inside the shop. 

The new name for the cafe is The Songbird and with our hot drinks we were all given one of these sweet little bird shaped biscuits.

S had a great time at the party later in the day but unfortunately my day went downhill. A bout of IBS which had started on Friday just got steadily worse through Saturday. I went to bed early and even though I slept through until gone 9am this morning I still felt tired. Thankfully but mid-afternoon the pain had eased but I do find that it just whacks me out and today I achieved very little.
T went to the charity shop for his two hour Sunday stint and G went into work to build up some flexi. Not the most fun packed weekend but that's just the way it goes sometimes.
