Saturday

Holiday day but not until later so first off a walk with Rosie and then another swim, it's like we go every twelve hours at the moment. This time a fine swimble with Kate in yet another different feeling sea.

Then home for packing, lying on the sofa for a spot of rest then off for the 3pm train to Gatwick. My holiday companions, my mum and Gloria (her sister, my lovely aunt of this parish ) are off for a week in Ireland. Bit of family visiting and obvs (because I have organised it), lots of swimming, reading, eating and drinking.

Landed at Cork at 8pm, rattled through the airport to be in our nearby hotel for 9. Quick meal which we had managed to miss earlier and off to bed. Holidays ahoy!!
