A Very British Weekend


Philippa and I have been camping this weekend.
We stayed in Norfolk and went to the lovely seaside town of Wells, where the beach is within walking distance of the tent, and the campsite toilets are like something from a medieval history museum. 
The weather yesterday was gorgeous. We spent most of the day lounging around on the sand watching fat tourists get sunburnt. In the evening we wandered into town for some tea and had an hour or so playing silly seaside amusements. This is something I missed out on as a youngster - the simple joy of stuffing 2p pieces into a machine and hoping to get a cheap plastic toy out of the bottom… What fun!
Now I am tired and disappointed to be back at home, and steeling myself for a return to work at 1pm. Wish me luck….
