We had a good time, picnic and play, but there was no water! The splash park was just a ... well park. We all got told off for throwing sand, we excavated our usual pipe area, we played a version of cricket, and Max and I got told off again for filling his socks with sand in the sandpit.
The olds were huddled under a tree wrapped in towels and fleeces, as they'd felt like one spot of rain! Ninnies. We managed to get them to buy us an ice cream on the way home and the mums laughed at my cosmopolitan choice - white Magnum. Elizabeth had long gone at this point ostensibly to the sea front, but maybe just to get away from us?
Mum and I were invited back chez Max for a play and a cuppa. The mums swapped responsibility for Jof's library book, and Mum went shopping in Tesco. Bud arrived home resplendent with a Star Wars toy he'd found in a charity shop. Awesome!
