I love a Bank Holiday weekend and it’s not long until the next one. The weather was amazing for the first May Bank Holiday weekend so I wonder what the chances are of it being so lovely and sunny again? Fingers crossed the weather should be good and it always feels like we can properly…
Today we visited Old Warden Aerodrome in Bedfordshire for the MayFly, an annual event organised by ModelAir. My husband builds and flies model planes and this is an annual event we never miss.

We are so lucky to have Ruislip Woods National Nature Reserve and Ruislip Lido near where we live. The Lido gets pretty busy on a sunny weekend so we avoid going but it’s surrounded by ancient woodland which is the perfect place to escape to for a cool walk. We last visited a few weeks ago…
