Today, we all went on the Mid Hants Watercress railway for a steam trip to Alresford. Being on a real steam railway was a real treat for the boys and they enjoyed the old-fashioned carriages. We stopped off at Alresford for tea and then caught the last train back.

Last week we spent the Easter week at Tenby with all the Fair Oak lot. We stayed at a lovely cottage near St. Florence. It was a huge cottage sleeping 12, with 6 adults and 6 children in.
The highlight of the week was the boys learning to swim without armbandsin the pool. They got very confident by the end of the week and enjoyed strutting their stuff round the pool. Joe even swam lengths of the pool.
We also managed to visit Pembroke Castle which the boys loved running and climbing around, pretending to be Sir Lancelot and Sir Galahad.
Folly Farm also received a visit, proving to be very popular, especially the fun-fair rides.
We also visited Heatherton park where the boys spent ages on trampolines and playing with the diggers in the sand.
Top all that off with a couple of days at the beach and you had the recipe for an excellent holiday.
