Sun , Sand, Seagull. Fish ?? No fish ?? Naise will do then !! or is that worms ??

Usual story, as parents you try to organise a day out, and then, you sleep in ... well slightly .. and that throws the plans out .

We had planned to go to Swansea, Mumbles on saturday, but got up after 9, instead of the planned 8 !! usually the road to Mumbles is clogged by mid morning, so when we left at 10.15, we held little hope ! but too our surprise, very few people had decided to go, which is a surprise because the weather proved to be about the best day of the year, ( yes a days respite in the rain we have had for months now !!)

we got there and made our way to a restaurant for dinner, nice italian, overlooking the Bay, though the tide was out, and had , as usual great food !! Darcy loves Bolognaise, so we ordered her a child portion, but of course trying to eat spaghetti when you do not have many teeth, and only basic fork skills, is a challenge !! she did look like a baby bird sucking worms !!

Next we strolled to the end of the headland, and the pier to where I knew there was a small beach, though Jayne didn't believe me, but it was there, and we sat for over an hour, darcy trying to understand why people want to sit on yellow dust, let alone make castles ( which do not even look like castles ) out of the yellow dust !!

A great day, was had by all, even managed an Expresso, and darcy had strawberry icecream, and we managed to catch the sun !!
