I had a very unexpected lovely day today, as I wasn't really expecting to do very much! I woke up this morning and went into the kitchen to have my breakfast, and I saw that Graham was making some sandwiches... nothing really clicked at this point as I had just woken up!
Then I saw him packing it into a cool bag and putting an ice pack in... I was then a little confused where he/we were going! I went into my sister's room and curled up in her bed (I was a bit cold) and asked her if we were going out... apparently we were going to a place with a castle and field! Thanks Zoe, very specific!
I went and got dressed and Zoe moaned that they always end up waiting for me... when it fact it is because they don't tell me that we are going out until we are literally just going out! Anyway, there was no need for me to get dressed at that point as my mum had fallen back to sleep so we didn't go fro at least another hour!
Once she was up and ready we all got into the car and we ended up in a place called White Horse Wood Country Park, which is somewhere near/inn Detling. We then went and sat at a bend, while we ate our lunch... of course I was the last person sitting there eating - as always!
After this we dumped our stuff in the car and went for a very short walk to the ruins of Thurnham Castle, where there was a big stone wall, some sheep, a big hill and some silly middle aged men with toy helicopters (complete with a helipad) who were constantly crashing into a bush when they could have used the massive field near the car park where they came from! Silly people!
We went up the big hill to see if there were more ruins... there weren't but the views were quite nice!
We were expecting there to be more ruins but... I suppose they are called ruins so there isn't going to be much of them! We then went round the other path way to find the iron age settlement, or something like that... there wasn't really anything much to be honest! But it didn't matter because it was a nice walk and it was sunny!
After that we went to a pub in Chilham to have something to drink, which was lovely and then we went back home to the beach and sat there eating an ice cream! Lovely! And I got to dip my toes in the sea for the first time this year - such a good feeling!
Mum and Graham have now gone out to see their friends and Zoe has gone to her friend's house. James and Joely were going to go out to see my Nan and Grandad to give them something so I decided to go with them rather than being left all alone at home! It was really nice going there and it ended the day quite nicely!
So yes, it was a very good Friday! Thanks Jesus!
