Nigel And The Pleasures Of Dawlish (Again).

When a cheeky couple of days in Dawlish with his beloved niece and nephew is proffered ………

…….. what’s a young monkey to do?

Well, it’s a bit of an annual invitation, so it would only look rude not to accept.

So this morning we find Nigel firmly ensconced in caravan No. 236 at Welcome Family Holiday Park in Dawlish Warren for the third year running! (the site, not the caravan)

He says, as always, going on holiday with Iris and Bertie is a very different affair to when he’s with Darrell and my good self ……

……… especially as Darrell is sooooooo organised, automatically takes over the kitchen and soon whips everyone into a routine,  but he’s sure they’ll muddle through, even though every single bed already seems to contain at least three soft toys and they’ve already lost a flip flop, a tube of toothpaste and all the lunch boxes meant for their beach picnics ………

……. because just being with Iris and Bertie unfettered by the rigours of the school run is always just too wonderful for words and although the weather is forecast to be pretty dire ……… let the adventures begin!

Another holiday invite, for young Nigel? Excellent.

Mind you, I can well understand why - he's such a charmer.
