Friday 31 March 2017

The last day of our winter break started warm and sunny. We're just having a lazy, time-killing, day today waiting for our Chunnel booking tomiorrow. We could have called Eurotunnel and brought it forward, we got Jamie “done” on Wednesday so it would have been okay, but it would certainly have cost us a supplement and would also have upset Mum's arrangements – can't have that!

We had sort of planned to take Jamie down to the beach but after breakfast it started to cloud over with a strong hint of precipitation so we thought we'd wait it out and did a few chores round the van. It improved quickly and suddenly after a late lunch though so we headed off into the village and down onto, as the tide had come in, a very narrow stretch of sand. However, unlike last year, it was almost deserted so we let Jamie off his lead for a good run around until the cool wind got a bit much and we headed back to Bertie for hot chocolate. It's amazing how the temperature dropped today when yesterday was almost sweltering!


The aire, from almost emptying, filled up again and was full by teatime. After tea we serviced the van to save time in the morning and are aiming for an early night – it'll be quite an early start (for us) and with the drive home will be a long day.
