Up early to waste some time in NeverWinter before the in-laws visited. It’s years since they’ve been over – in the meantime one way street systems have been introduced, to say nothing of the bollards blocking our road to all but emergency vehicles.

They left sooner than expected, and I was tempted to go to the Pheasant’s family fun afternoon, but knowing what I’m like, I wouldn’t have got out of the pub for less than thirty quid. Perhaps we should have visited the Kite Weekenders who were having a long weekend at Brenzett, but it was quite cold this afternoon.
