August Bank Holiday

This long weekend was the last bank holidays before Christman, someone happily told me the other day. Shame the weather was not playing ball! We had a great long wekeend nonetheless, with shopping, playing, outings to Saffron Walden and on Moday, a BBQ at Maria and Mats' for Vera and I.

Mark was busy doing slides for a talk he has this week.
There were 7 adults and 7 children, youngest 4 weeks and oldest 3 years at the BBQ and it was interesting to see Vera inbetween the older children and clearly not a baby anymore. She was a little bit shy at first, but then walked around on the lawn, chucked a few stones, feasted on souvlaki with tzatziki and the strawberries and ice cream!
