Great Bank Holiday – we whizzed down to Poole briefly to see Andrew and Sarah and my beautiful cousins as well as Chris and the soon to be aunty Juliette and ended up staying the night at the campsite which was an excellent choice, rather than drive home!

We watched a bit of windsurfing, went over the chain ferry, visited corfe castle, had a cream tea, walked across the sandbanks, barbied … it was like a weeks holiday in 24 hours!

There were lots of funny moments, but the funniest will need you to use your imagination ….

we are walking across the beach and come across the sign saying ‘nudist beach 900 metres). It’s cold we think so we will keep going, there won’t be anyone out today. We hot the 500 metre sign and then my clown of an oldest son, Tom, shouts ‘dad I’m getting ready’ as he runs Trigger happy style along the beach taking off layer after layer and throwing it aside! Thankfully he did stop before baring skin, but it was very funny!

I’d like to know where he gets his sense of humour from!
