visiting parents and the national trust

I am finding titles currently a bit challenging! Anyway, fab weds historyetc as blogged, worked all day thurs – v late day too!! girls had CHEF multisports and then gym. BB was a bit wobbly about it as had fallen asleep in the car, but think it all went OK. SB had guides. She says she preferred Brownies, but it is OK. I do like the fact that she has reconnected with an old friend, and a playdate has been made for next week :) . My parents were here when I got back from work, which was lovely and stayed until today [sun] lunchtime. My mum cracked the home ed whip friday, tho the girls spent pretty much all morning in the bath! They both did enough of their ticksheets tho to liberate a book :)

Saturday we went to oxburgh Hall in Norfolk. A fab national trust property, the ancestral home of the Bedingfields and originally tudor, tho much added and altered the tudor shines through :) loved seeing the tapestry work that Mary queen of scots did whilst held captive. v interesting house [ tho dad outraged that couldn't take photos, even with no flash] and some gardens to run round. looked fab with the moat. The weather was a bit showery, so had hopes it may have rained on our veg patch, but it hadn;t :(  Home and some gardening with parents and then played ticket to ride, which sb won. Lovely day :)

Today mostly gardening early on and then companiable watching of doctor who in the evening
