Mum and Dad left for Bournemouth. I visited the British Museum. I spent most of my time in the Roman Britain, Sutton Hoo and Parthenon Marble sections. Then I went for a pint in the Museum pub.

Sidcup BBQ 29th July 2018
Fi and Peter hosted a meeting of the clans for a BBQ. The heatwave broke the day before and it was a bit rainy but the food was good and the mood. It was a great meetup! There was music, table football, chess, Fi and I walked the paths of our youth, much feasting, traffic light jelly, Eton mess, delicious cakes by Mum and Sukey. Even Milly the cat enjoyed it.
Bournemouth 27 July 2018
Walked with Mum from Browning Rd to Hengistbury Head Hiker's cafe and on the way back we had a swim though the waves were quite high and the backflow was difficult to stand up to. Mum fell over in the sea, but even so we were proud of ourselves.
