Beyond Bournemouth.

Home again on Sunday evening to dinner cooked by W & MK.
KB was cutting the field hedges across the road & took the top off the field hedge for us.
MK & I took J to the playgroup in the Village Hall on Monday morning, he enjoyed it & we met some nice local mums.
After lunch I cleared up some hedge cuttings then took W to the airport & went on to the gym & then home for dinner.
On Tuesday we took DK to the doctors to get a referral to the consultant in Manchester, then went on to Solihull. We parked in Brueton Park & walked to the town centre via the playground in Malvern Park for J to run off some steam. We did some shopping & met Ben, who was there for a business lunch. He brought the baby gym for DK to use.
After coffee in M&S (where else?) & a failed mission to buy J waterproof boots, I walked back to fetch the car & picked up Mk, J & DK at the end of the High street, then home to tea.

Today we went to Manchester for DK to have his plasters replaced.
We had a good journey both there & back by using the Toll road & ignoring the instruction to leave the M6 & drive through the centre of Manchester, in favour of the M62, M60.
The boys were great. We arrived early had a picnic lunch in the waiting room & J made full use of the toys provided. DK slept for most of both journeys & smiled through his bath & plastering session.
We got home just before 5.00pm, have fed, played & watched some poor TV.
There was a good joke about tinnitus & wind chimes.
