Bank Holiday Weekend with the Boys

Jamie and Phill arrived in the early hours (3am!) of Saturday morning.  When Phill was in the shower it decided to pack up – aaah!!  They were going into Falmouth so they went via B&Q and picked up a new Mira Sport Max shower for us.  Ozzie stayed at home and made himself quite comfortable with me and Hamish on the sofa …

On Sunday we picked Pam and Jo up and made our way over to Trengwainton Gardens for a cream tea lunch!  We sat outside and gorged ourselves …

When we left we had to take photos on the rocking horse but there was no applause today!

We were looking over a campsite and although very basic for facilities (just a portaloo) I can’t imagine a better view to wake up to …

After dropping Jo and Pam back to their respective homes, the boys changed into wetsuits and headed for the beach.  The weather wasn’t great so I declined joining them in the water and just went along with my camera.

There was plenty of activity on the beach with the Surf Lifesaving Championships up one end and a Surf School giving lessons at the other …

We went back on the beach in the evening to walk off a very large roast chicken dinner …

With a forecast of rain for today, the boys decided to leave us in the morning and start making their way home.  They were meeting Simon and Vikki at Taunton as Ozzie would be spending the next two weeks with them.  Jamie and Phill are off to Kefalonia tomorrow – lucky devils!
