Boys and the beach

It’s been a long day but who’d have thought the boys would have persuaded Granny into the North Sea for a swim. What fun we had.

We only got them off the beach by promising a visit to the Rennington Scarecrow festival. Thomas counted 78 scarecrows, including a whole croquet match.

We stopped in Alnwick for fish and chips. On the drive home I said they’d get a bath and then have a bit of TV before bed. “What!”, exclaimed James. “That was a very fast day”.
Only for some James.
