Day 154 Saturday 2nd June: We woke at 7.30am today.Oliver had slept really well. We watched catch up of Thomas the Tank Engine in bed while Roland  had his shower. When we got up Roland gave him breakfast - in fact Roland did all the looking after because I went back to bed, I was really tired.

Oliver loves his grandad doing things for and with him. Oliver spent the morning playing with his cars with Thomas on the Television until his mum and dad came about 11am. Olivers Auntie Claire and Auntie Fiona were already there when they arrived. Fiona had popped in to see us as she had come up to stay with a friend in the village for the weekend.  They'd had a brilliant time at the wedding and didn't get to bed until the early hours of the morning and felt very tired today.

Nikki also arrived with Sian so I could give Sian her hat and jacket. Sian was very tired and was a bit overwhelmed by all the people so she was clingy and quiet.

They went back to Jaynes and Roly and Louise took Oliver home. I went over to Jaynes, where I also saw Joe and Kevin, Nikki and Jaynes brother. It's been a lovely lovely day seeing so much of the family.

Joe came back with me to help replant the Chive seedlings, chatting all the time we got the job done and ended up with soil up to our elbows, I don't know how that happened. I was tired again, don't know what's wrong today so went back to bed and didn't wake til Roland woke me at 8pm.
While I was asleep Roland went out and took some photos for me.

He took lots of lovely photos for In the distance.
I chose this one of the Signal box at the railway crossing in Bamber Bridge
It really is there.
Roland was not trespassing there is a public crossing for walkers to get on to the park.
I borrowed Hazels idea and you can just make out the signal box on the left hand side.
