What a lovely weekend we all had. Saturday was a nice relaxed day with just the girls, which was highlighted by an superb long lunch at 'The Met' Tapas bar in Ventnor. We all love Spanish Tapas and my youngest eats olives as if they are sweets, I don't know any other 3 year old that will go any where near olives.
Yesterday was full of the first glimpses of spring, with the birds singing and the flowers blooming. In the morning, with help from the girls, I tidied the garden and lit a roaring bonfire to burn all the garden rubbish. On the return of number one son from his fathers after lunch we all went for an invigorating walk along the beach at Bembridge.
This is the view of the new Lifeboat station from the beach, which is a couple of hundred yards down a private road from our house. It was great fun running along the sand with the kids and when we reached the Ledge we stopped for a flask of tea and took in the gloriously fresh sea air under a surprisingly warm February sun. What a fantastic finish to a splendid half term holiday. Back to school for the kids today though!
