On Saturday I took Max, Darcy and Libby and we all had a lovely swim followed by a trip to Hookey Pokey's ice cream shop which is a great place to visit. Reminded me of when my sister and I used to go swimming at Torrington pool on Tuesday evenings and afterwards we would go to a little local sweet shop and get a treat - normally a Topic. If we were really lucky Dad would have finished work and would have come to meet us and we would ride back home in his car at break neck speed leaving my poor Mum to follow on her own in her slower car. Funny how you remember the little things like this and the difference that having Dad arrive from wo
rk made them more memorable. I wonder whether the trip to Hookey Pokeys will stay with Max and he will remember this in years to come. As for Darcy - not sure she will remember this whole trip, at least we have the pictures to remind her!On Sunday, in addition to the above we were also joined by Paul and Sally, Ellie, Teri and Susie which made a good social event. No ice cream this time. I had a craving for a good side of beef, veg and roast potatos...ended up with Curry and Rice!
Watched the Singapore Grand Prix, not a bad race but Button should have done better! Wonder if this was a pivotal race for him as Lewis didn't finish again and he could have made greater in roads, still time will tell.
