R and I went to Cardiff, where it was blisteringly hot, but where (after two mornings at day nursery last week) poor Baby B is suffering from another cold. As will Grandma J be very shortly, no doubt, because as … Continued

R and I were in Cardiff again today, where Baby B (nearly seven months old now!) was his best self for us. We had a wonderful day. While B was taking his late morning nap at home, we went off … Continued
