After a disastrous start to our caravan holiday at Havens down in Hastings, in that it was constantly raining, it got worse by finding out that neither the TV or DVD player in our caravan worked.
Then we were told that neither of the boys could take part in any of the water activities as despite meeting the required being able to swim 25m they had to be 8 years old - a fact that was not advertised or mentioned anywhere until we got there.
We were sooooooo disappointed especially when we found out that the kids clubs weren't kids clubs, but just an hour or so of "stay and play with your kids" sessions and most of the "family" activities had been cancelled for whatever reasons, just leaving football...
Hard to amuse a very active and hyper 3 and 5 year old in the confinds of a caravan...
The week got slightly better as it at least stopped raining and was just very windy, but in true British style, we still went down to the beach one afternoon to collect stones - as Hastings beach has no sand! The piccy says it all!!!
by Thursday we'd had enough so came home a day early... Not the best of holidays, and we wont be going back again.
Thanks to Su Harrison on Heart SX's (Essex FM to those in the know) Breakfast show this morning, myself and four of my good friends (Tina, Michelle, Rachel and Kelly) will all be guests at her Little Black Dress party at Fargo's in Westcliff tomorrow as I won the tickets!!
On the rare occurance that the sun has made an appearance, the children and I just love to spend time, just chillin' in the garden....
We're just so proud of our boys - Alexander got his 100m and Nicholas got his 50m in swimming!!!
Whilst Alex was learning to ride his bike today, Nicholas was having fun on the witch's hat!
