Coldest Week in Blackpool Ever

I was unbelievably cold. I should have taken some hot water bottles!

Despite the cold we had a great week in Blackpool. We stayed at the Haven Holidays caravan park in Fleetwood, Cala Gran. It was the last week of the season for Cala Gran and the last week for the illuminations. I love returning to the Blackpool illuminations. Every time I see them it takes me back to the very first time I went with my parents (1969?). I can still remember how magical it was. My children are a bit older, and a lot less easy to impress but they do like the Pleasure Beach.

Governors' Award Evening, Selby Abbey

Jack gained his much deserved Governors' award for 100% attendance this evening. The service was in Selby Abbey. He managed to get through last year without missing a day of school. Quite an achievement. He's now aiming to do the same this year. He'd also like to get a subject award too. He has his sights set on History. Time will tell.[School web page]
