These drumsticks are heavy!
Today we went with Caz to see lots of people pretending to be other people at a big battle re-enactment. This drum belongs to a friend who is from the English Civil War. It must mean that she is really old. Leo and me had fun playing the drum even though the sticks are very heavy.
Where are we going?
It turned out to be rather wet and horrid by the end of the day – and we had all hoped to go out on a little walk when Caz had finished work. Instead, she told us about our holiday in September, when she is going to take me and Leo to the Outer Hebrides in Scotland. So we got the maps out and had a good look at the places we will visit. Leo was being very optimistic wearing his shades, he is a silly lion sometimes!
Time to chill in the garden
It was very hot again today, so Leo and me decided to chill at home. We have had some very busy weekends recently, and although we had a great time, it is also nice to spend some time just relaxing.
We sat in the garden and cooked some lovely bangers and eggs on the barbeque – at least, I hope Leo is keeping an eye on them from behind his silly sunglasses – there’s nothing worse than burnt saussies!
I wonder where he has gone?
Leo and me stopped off at a place called Willy Lott’s Cottage, on the way home from our trip to Suffolk with Caz. Apparently it’s very famous as a man called John Constable put it in one of his paintings.
We thought we would say hello to Willy but when we knocked the door there was no answer. Perhaps he had just popped out for a while, but we didn’t stop very long as it started to pour with rain! Willy will be pleased though, as it filled up his pond and he won’t have to use a hosepipe.
Enjoying the fresh sea air
We enjoyed a lovely trip to the seaside today, to a place called Southwold. There is a big pier where we had lunch and watched lots of people swimming in the sea. I decided not to have a dip as Leo and me preferred to sit on the prom and catch a few rays of sun. Later we had a big ice cream to cool us down. What a grand day out!
Who is the dirty rascal?
It was another very hot day today, but we enjoyed ourselves out and about in the sunshine. This is me and Leo sitting inside the big ruined castle in Framlingham.
We enjoyed exploring and even climbed up to the top of the walls to see what the view was like! If I’m the King of the Castle, does that make Leo the Dirty Rascal?
We are going around Saturn!
Today was our last day in Blackpool before we headed home. We went to see this little Solar System in a park, and me, Leo and Mr Duck decided to take a spin around Saturn’s rings. Wheeeeeeee! Then we had a lovely walk in a really big park before saying goodbye to Mr Duck and getting the train home with Caz. We had a lovely stay in Blackpool – I hope we can visit again soon!
