We've done a fair bit of adventuring this month. Easter bank holiday: we packed a picnic, and set off exploring, randomly stumbling across Hanham Court - a fabulous setting for a picnic. Mum came over, and we went to Dyrham Park and Longleat, where Mum & Tom had a close encounter of the DEER kind. Quite scary for them, quite hilarious for me (I was too busy taking photos to help!).
