Things really have settled down lovely at home now. The Wife and I are getting on swimmingly well and Mathew even seemed pleased to be going back to school this morning, although I am thoroughly expecting that to wear off in a matter of hours.

The change at work this week has been palpable too. We're still almost at full capacity, but it's a very different vibe. Many caravans only have couples in, rather than the families of 4 or 5 (or even more at times) that were using them up to the weekend. It's all very calm and relaxed, too, rather than the sugar-fuelled chaos of the past two months or so, and the noise levels are so low it's almost like we're an abandoned site. You get so used to the sounds of children playing, crying, shouting and laughing that it just doesn't feel right when it's missing. I mean, don't get me wrong, my workdays have become infinitely easier already and I assure you I'm not pining for the busyness of the past few weeks, but it is weird to walk about and not have a cacophony of deafening outcries assaulting your eardrums, or to be constantly sidestepping to avoid hyperactive young 'uns lest they accidentally dislocate your kneecap.
