Not a trip to Isle of Wight

Yesterday it rained solidly all day so we stayed in during the morning. In the afternoon Natalie had booked afternoon tea for her and Lynette as part of lynettes birthday present. Andy took the kids to the playground which they enjoyed but got muddy and wet!

Today we knew was going to be fine and sunny so we had planned to take the ferry for a day trip to Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight, but all the ferries were fully booked so we settled for another trip to the beach, which was fine sunny and warm, but with much more people there than on Tuesday. Andy and Natalie wanted to go out for a meal on their own tonight while we looked after Finlay and Emily, but all the restaurants in the town were booked but they got a reservation at a Thai restaurant nearby. Generally it does seem to be busy with people everywhere, i guess it's a popular holiday place anyway, but then the virus has meant that people can't go abroad either.Read more
