off to explore the east end

missed the politicians preparing for the (good)by(e) election

but found the park and the peacocks and the baby pigs and a huge climbing tree and a quiet place for a picnic and a huge rose garden and a scabby play park and a fab bakery

and when cb1 said - on the way home - that was a bit boring - i got out of the car and walked about on the pavement and got back in again without shouting

but then did a very speedy 10 mile skate in the evening and everything felt just fine (if a bit creaky after 9 months off the skates)
