Shady walk

If you look closely there's SooB and MrB enjoying a peaceful moment in the woods whilst many children pretend they are dogs and fetch sticks for anyone who'll throw them. Lovely afternoon escaping the heat wave wandering through Philip's Hill Wood with many old friends.

Much slower journey back into London, partly due to an accident on the Motorway and more excitingly when we were held back at a slip road to leave a clear path for some Olympic vehicles to charge through. Not sure what they were, possibly torch related, but it was close enough to the Olympics to get us cheering and whooping in a slightly over-excited manner.

Back in time to feed kids and get ourselves changed for a lovely dinner out with newer friends, parents of a friend of Anna's.

A very lovely day. The sunshine and all these outings with friends is just the start to summer we all needed.
