It being half term, and the house being ripped apart in the name of safe electrics, the kids and I took the opportunity to visit Alice-who-isn’t-a-cat in her new home in Devon.

Be warned…this is a picture heavy post.

    OK, I am so jealous that you could go to the beach and not wear fur! Lovely photos – and beautiful knitwear 🙂

    These pictures are great – thanks so much for sharing. That, and your children look like catalogue models for really fancy knitwear. They are so photogenic!

Grab a brew and stay a while.
