    I felt dire at 6.00am this morning , but took Gaviscon and that seemed to work, haven't eaten much today. Seaside trip went well , beach for a couple of hours. Train ride £6 for 2 , carousel ride £3 for 2 . Kids ride £1 . One hot dog, one tea and one juice £3 . Free parking. £13 . Better than I thought. We went on the 2p slot machines but took about 50p of them and spent the lot. Took other food and drinks.

    Day 2 tomorrow, free swimming at gym pool, then a park depending on the weather.

    Hope you have a lovely day. It's looking very promising up here this morning, sunshine over the fells and fluffy white clouds rather than the ominous grey ones of the last couple of days.

    Your day with DGC sounded delightful. I don't envy you the long drive today. Take care.
    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

    Nose is healing really well, you can't really see where all those stitches were. Back for a 6 week check up on Tuesday .
