Day 2 of the summer holidays.
So far so good.
We have painted the inside of the little wendy house yesterday morning. It languished at the back of the garden kind of forgotten for the last couple of years but now is turning into a whitewashed club house for secret boys' meetings and 'chillaxing' moments.
I did offer to make curtains and bunting... but the stunned silence and horrified look I got back was quite eloquent. That would be a NO, then.
We also hit the aforementioned 'lido'. They won, as I knew they would. It was kind of sunny so they did get to swim a little, but wasn't as warm as they thought so today there hasn't been a request for a repeat trip.
Ha.
I guess learning from experience is the best thing, right?
Here's the new camera strap:
I used some of that 70's ribbon my aunt gave me. I just doubled it up and stitch a couple of parallel times along the edges. Opinions vary around here. From 'cool vintage' (me) to 'yuck, looks old' (No 1).
Whatever. It's mine and I like it.
