Disrupted day out
Disrupted day out
As Daniel was in nursery yesterday, I had planned to take Matthew out for the day, and was hoping to take him on the train to Kidwelly Castle. Unfortunately, the first part of my plan was disrupted by the weather and high tides, which had closed the railway line, but according to the website the castle was open so we drove there. When we arrived, although the shop was open, the castle was closed due to the high winds, so that part of my plan also failed! After giving Matthew a choice of what to do, we ended up going to a play centre, which he enjoyed so the day wasnt a complete disaster! He actually went on a lot of the activities alone, which I was very impressed with considering none of his friends were there, but we also did some things together including playing table football and fighting each other with the foam ball guns.
We have taken down the Christmas decorations today, and discovered only two chocolate Santas remaining on the tree. Im not sure how many were in the pack - perhaps 8 - but I know that Matthew has only had 3 legitimately, and he owned up when I confronted him about an empty wrapper which was hanging on the tree a while back, so Im wondering if hes had the rest and cleverly disposed of the evidence!
