Maria and her two girls Alex, 6, and Rhianna, 4, came over to play in the morning. The visitors seemed rather subdued for a while in the unfamiliar surroundings before loosening up and playing with Fern and Emily. It was good to catch up with my old school friend, and as always I found her really easy to chat to.
After a late lunch Fi and I took the children to Raglan garden centre. We managed to steer them through to the outdoor section without them damaging any of the ornaments and toys on offer, and they had a very overpriced icecream each before playing in the small play area there.
I incurred Nick's wrath as I had arranged to Skype him but went out without talking to him. I should have asked Dad if I could but I felt a bit hesitant to boot him off his own PC when he was working on something. I wish I had as Nick was extremely cross and sent a strongly-worded email. Can't say I blame him as he must have been ever so disappointed.
