Flower Bowl and Train Games

Flower shaped pool table

Saturday 16th March was a very horrible day - cold, grey and raining.  Football was cancelled - what to do...Matt had a brainwave - Barton Grange.  They have a new leisure centre with an undercover crazy golf, 10 pin bowling and get this...a curling rink.  We decided to have a go at the crazy golf.  So we headed over.  It wasn't cheap but it was immaculate and well thought out.  AND I WON!!!! Yay, was fun, and we will be back.  We then headed for the chippy for a fish and chip lunch and then back for a game of flower pool which was pretty much impossible.  A quick once around the garden centre, bought some primroses for the garden and then headed home - a good use of a horrible day.  We were slightly concerned that we might not be able to get home as all the rivers were flooding but we did OK, which was good because I had a big cake being collected in the evening.

Sunday 17th March, we had Rebecca over for the day so they could play railways on the model train layout.  They looked after themselves for the whole day making up schedules, Rebecca tided up his layout and there was a lot of narrative about the journeys the trains were on.  Neither me nor Matt were needed.  Matt went out to do the waterfalls walk in the afternoon whilst I sat and did my accounts - not exciting but definitely needed.  A really easy day.
