    Heading home from Danes Dyke. A and T both managed to fall over in the sea, T has a wet bottom and didn't think of bringing a change of clothes so is still sat in soggy shorts and boxers. A was drenched from the head down and has a complete change of clothes! They enjoyed it though, we all did.

    It was! Exhausted now though, there's a steep hill down to the beach and we had to climb a lot pf stairs on the nature trail but I love it there. My school took us in year 6 and it's always stayed with me.

    It sounds so lovely. When Ais was younger we had a lot of wet bums coming home from the seaside. It brings back lots of memories.

    Sounds perfectly wonderful! Wet bums on the way home is perfect!
    I once took my kids to go to see my Mum and we took her dogs for a walk in the New Forest with my sister and her children. The kids managed to find a huge puddle and asked if they could paddle - obviously I said yes! It was only when they started to fall over did we realise how deep it was and I didn't have spare clothes for any of them! Luckily my little brother drove up to play with us and he had a boot full of slightly smelly, but dry rugby shirts! So my kids did the 2 1/2 hour journey (and had to stop on the way home for a wee) in smelly far too big for them rugby shirts! It was hilarious! Ben didn't think so and Hazel didn't like the smell, but we convinced her it was high fashion and amazing and Fern was just happy to sleep on the way home! Good times!

    I always claim this is why I keep a messy car..... always something to throw on or wrap round damp bodies. My daughter was always falling in the sea, or into rock pools etc etc. Sounds like a fun time. I miss having little ones.

    Ok. If I'm honest, I've been struggling since Tuesday with fatigue. I don't want to build in rest days after a pleasant day out! I don't like that I'm not capable of very much for a day or 2 afterwards. All I've managed today is 2 loads of washing and putting the pots away and I'm back on the sofa feeling exhausted. I hate it.

    I have every sympathy. It truly, royally sucks. I'm sorry love. But I'm really glad you're resting... Can you ask for help with doing the household chores? It shouldn't all fall just to you....

    J is at work and the children are with their mum. I'm trying to pace and J has told me to sit and rest. He insisted on buying me a new book yesterday so I'm working my way through that. But I see bits that need doing and feel lazy not doing them.
