Suffolk holiday. A few days away in Lowestoft, enj Suffolk holiday. A few days away in Lowestoft, enjoying the beach, eating a lot, enjoying visits to a zoo, theme park, castle, ruins, arcades, circus, mini golf, then disc golf and GoApe on the way home. I'm glad we were on the coast because we'd never have coped with the heat otherwise. Are you wishing for some cooler weather and rain soon too?

Spent a morning in Stratford while N was at tennis Spent a morning in Stratford while N was at tennis camp this week. Was nice to see the food and craft market on but really I just love being there in the sun. Shame my week of leave is over already, but only a week of work before I'm on leave again. 

How's the summer holidays going with you?

Sunset shot overlooking the runway at a nearby out Sunset shot overlooking the runway at a nearby outdoor bar last Friday. Nice view after their leavers party when we all retired to the bar. The last day of primary school done. Transition morning for secondary school done today, now N's got the summer holidays ahead of him.

Do you have children moving school this year?

First trip to Wimbledon, centre court and we got t First trip to Wimbledon, centre court and we got to watch Cameron Norrie's semi vs Djokovic. Disappointing result for us Brits but maybe next time. We also saw the women's semi finals doubles, and watched some of the under 14s. Wow, so young but  they're amazing, and you're so close to the action. The atmosphere was amazing, we had a lovely (if very hot) day and I was thankful we were under cover courtside. 

Back to reality when my return home was met with a suitcase from N's residential which someone else had been sick all over in the middle of the night. Joy.

Just spending some time outside in the sun without Just spending some time outside in the sun without being asked to play football all the time. . N is on residential til tomorrow but the OH is on pick up duty as I'm off to watch Cameron Norrie play his semi final at Wimbledon. Gutted we'll only get to see one semi. Its a lot of money to pay to only guarantee seeing one match. 

Every year these roses bloom so sumptuously. They look white but actually have bits of pink in too. Hope the dogs enjoy them because they border one side of their kennel and run. Are you enjoying the hot weather at the moment?
