Blist Hill

I sometimes can't believe how time flies.  It doesn't seem two minutes since I was last on my blog and yet it's 2 months ago.  Well, it's school holidays again and it's lovely not having to get up early to get to work and I'm away tomorrow until Sunday so really looking forward to the break.

Here's some pics of the day we spent at Blist Hill - an old Victorian village.  It was great fun despite the rain and the kids loved it.

Tom and Ben on the flying chairs just as it started to rain, and I mean rain.  Poor Ben got the worst of it and felt quite ill.

We called these 'shuggy boats' when I was little
