I promised the girls we’d spend every possible afternoon out this week, so long as they did some work in the morning and uncomplainngly left the public areas of the house tidy at lunchtime. On Monday they kept their word, so i tried to take them to Hill Farm for berry picking. Unfortunately it was closed, so we did a detour around the bits of countryside out to the side of us (not fen and very much prettier) and came out at the farm. Glad of my season tickets, made it worth going for a couple of hours and we had some much needed fresh air without it being too busy.

Being braver than you used to be.
In fact, in the girls’ (and naturally mine too) opinion, the only thing that spoiled the afternoon was the fact that Chloe and Michelle weren’t there this time 🙂 Lovely afternoon.
Michelle says
Aw. That’s lovely 🙂
Chris (portico) says
Sultry!!!!!!! You sure you mean that?
site admin says
You say that a lot. We must have different definitions of the word. I think of it as meaning being pouty and grumpy for effect as a cover for being flirty in order to get what you want out of someone.
I could have put glum, but that would have sounded like she was sad, when in fact she was being pouty and manipulative, a state she has been perfecting recently 🙄 😆
Chris says
Not just me!!!! Just not a word that *I* would ever use to describe a child.

lovely pics, has reminded me that I promised to take Aprilia to our local farm again (which is remarkably similar looking to yours!)

Yeah, expressing or arousing a desire in me to throttle her 😉
