• Stopped at the in laws to see some flying visitors (our Cornish family)
• Roast dinner
• Came home

Well, that's about it. For the interested parties, I have posted (will be posting) more pictures to Facebook momentarily. Some with hilarious captions. After that I will drink a Welsh beer and eat some crisps then join my wife in bed for some television and sleeping.

We had a lovely break away, just the three of us, and I look forward to our next family holiday. Whenever that might be.

I shall be back tomorrow, hopefully with an update that involves boring sentences, weak humour and little else.

See you then!
