I have to say I had the most wonderful time in Tenby, my Brother, Sister-in-law and gorgeous Niece had booked a house for 2 weeks in Penally which is a lovely village outside Tenby, so I got a couple of days off work and drove down to join them. They had a lovely house and it was wonderful to see my Niece Cara, we took her to Folly Farm, she loved that, not so much the animals (I actually loved the fact you could feed a bottle of milk to a little baby goat - Cara not so much) but the soft play area (until she got stuck in the ball pit, and my poor 6ft odd Brother had to climb through a hole the size of a watermelon to drag her out), the swings and of course the slides (which I also loved, of course I only went on the slide to help Cara) She did fall over in one of the tubes and bit through her lip, it bled like you wouldn't believe, but it didn't put her off. To cheer her up I bought her a little stuffed toy rabbit we called Stu (as in rabbit Stu)
The next day we went to Pembroke, again to a park so she could go on the swings (I also went on the big girl swings haven't done that since I was 12 it was amazing but I couldn't believe how out of breath I was, I don't remember that when I was a kid! me and my 35 year old Brother were racing to see who could go higher he won but I reckon it's because he's almost a foot taller than me) Then we got some bread and went to feed the Swans, well we fed the swans, Cara was stuffing the bread in her mouth!. We went to a lovely place for lunch and on the menu was Ham, peas, mash and parsley sauce which is my condemned man's meal, and to top it off I had dandelion and burdock pop, it was like going back in time, absolutely loved it.
Saturday the weather was amazing and we spent the whole day on the beach, even went in the sea, Cara loved the sea until a monster got her, it was actually a bit of seaweed that got stuck round her foot, but she didn't like it at all.
What was really cute was that every day when we came back from whatever we were doing Cara would pick up rabbit Stu and you could hear her saying "Hiya Stu, What you been doing? I've been splashing and making sandcastles etc, and she would rattle off everything she had done during the day, she has an amazing vocabulary for a 21 month old.
We went to a lovely pub for Sunday lunch then I drove home and left them in Penally for their second week. So after a very bad weekend, I gave Slimming World a miss on Monday, but to compensate I have been exceptionally good this week, not even a drink ......which is amazing for me as I am a bottle of wine a night girl.
Loving Dexter - hope you are all watching it, no-one on my section at work does so it's annoying when you want to talk about what happened in last nights episode!
Well as I am not going out so I can't cheat, there's not much else to report so I'll close now, but ...
Keep Smiling
love Marmite Girl xx
