Cornwall

Mum fancied a family holiday, so she arranged to borrow Anita’s Gran’s cottage in Point Green, near Truro.  Dan & I were a bit nervous about a family holiday, esp as it would be the longest time he had spent with my family, but we all had a really good week.  The weather wasn’t great, but we had a few good days & managed to fit in nearly everything we had intended to do.  We managed to explore Truro, go swimming at the Ships & Castle fun pool in Falmouth, visit Goonhilly satellite station, Cornish Market World, Cornish Cyder Farm and Launceston Castle and also visit Portleven & Perranporth in search of beaches.  Portlevel wasn’t so good for a beach – but did great fish & chips & ice cream sundaes!  Perranporth was good fun tho & Dan even managed to teach David a few frisbee throws.  We also went out for a meal for Mum’s Birthday & Dan & I called in to visit my friend Emma on our way back in Plymouth.  It was a really nasty drive home, with rain, fog & unlit country roads to contend with – but overall a good week.

Riding – 2hrs

15 July 2007, by Angel Annie

My first 2hr ride for years! I certainly felt it afterwards! However, it was an interesting ride. Unfortunately Carla had broken her finger and couldn’t ride, and there was an american girl with us who couldn’t actually ride english style, so that made things a bit slower (as she fell off twice, and was having trouble with any control at all). It was lovely weather tho & I got a good few fast canters in – so I had a good time anyway.

Butlins

9 July 2007, by Angel Annie

Butlins time again – my 3rd visit to Butlins in Bognor Regis, once again for an Adults Only weekend.  This time round I had a bit more of an idea of what was around, so Dan & I made sure we got up & gave archery & fencing a go, along with the usual fun in the swimming pool & a game of bingo – I won £10 this time )  Obviously there were also lots of drinking games & fun in the arcades too!  All the pictures from Butlins are on facebook.
