Got up at 6.30 as awake. Had breakfast before walking suki as news more interesting. Bought map updates for tom tom which took over an hour to downloaf but very pkeased with price. £38 for 6 updates over next 18 months. Went to Chiswick after walk in southfields park.

They weren't expecting me - and it was such a nice surprise we decided to go and meet the later train with the Majorca contingent on board. Waiting at the station for the train We had a lovely week doing all the usual things - it was nice for us all to be together again and spend some time together. I tried to keep my step total up each day - and found pushing a pram to put either Aidan or Harrison (or both!) to sleep was a useful way of doing this. I also walked into Bognor almost every day! I also spent a lot of time at the ...
