    Yes it is - you told me where you live last year :D
    I think it is probably 9 in the morning where Chev lives - a 12 hour difference.

    Well that one is less than 100m from my house :D If you walk along the row of shops I'm opposite the Co-op, half a mile up in the sky :) The weather is supposed to be fantastic over the next few days so you've picked a good time to come :)

    Just wanted to say what a lovely village you live in and we all thought that your beach was fab. The boys spent ages playing catch and got very wet!
    Unfortunately we've had to come without going onto the campsite due to family issues but we will be back.
    Ps my 12 yr old thought that the park was the best ever!!!

    Thankyou Dangers, am glad you liked it here although sorry you had to go early. The park is pretty good as it is so local, they did it up last summer so it is better for slightly older kids now, it used to only cater for the toddlers.

    Back from our trip, had a great time although we're both shattered now. Yesterday we did the Science Museum and the London Eye (which I was petrified on and couldn't look out :o), today we did Legoland. The weather was amazing, had a lovely time, ds behaviour was shocking at times :( but overall it was a lovely trip. Spends = £5 car park, £6 travelcard, £14 pizza hut, £7 breakfast, £5 lunch, £1 car park, £1 sweets, £3.50 lego, £4 red arrow simulator. Total = £46.50 :eek: However, I have just amde a tenner on a games offer so will put that towards the trip rather than in the mortgage pot, so £36.50 needs to come out of the monthly budget.

    DH has said that we will come down and just stay in the Premier Inn as it was clean and the room a good size for the four of us.

    Glad you had a good time in London and at Legoland even if ds' behaviour wasn't as good as you would have liked.
