My Curves and Me & Cleo Meg

Beautiful wedding at the weekend celebrating the m Beautiful wedding at the weekend celebrating the marriage of my sister-in-law Janet and Tony. 💒  As a florist she did her own flowers which were just stunning. 💐 The reception held at The Baltic on Gateshead quayside was filled with the gorgeous scent of the flowers. A really lovely gathering. Wish the whole family could’ve been there, Reuben would’ve looked so cute in a little suit again. It might’ve saved me from the fate of the wine! 🤪 🥂

Rain doesn’t stop play around here 🤪 🌧️ Rain doesn’t stop play around here 🤪 🌧️ 🌈 We’ve put our @englishheritage membership to good use and visited SO MANY places over the summer holiday. There’s been new pop badges released which Reuben has enjoyed collecting ALL of!  He’s also done the various trails which have been fun, and he achieved the coveted 2nd, 4th and 6th visit badges completing his summer ‘passport’. I think he’s chuffed!

So here’s yesterday’s day of play - Helmsley castle. Helmsley was my late Dad’s birthplace and stomping ground. Can’t visit here without feeling that connection. It threw it down with rain before the most glorious rainbow came out. 😌 🌈

Still on the school holiday adventure train with l Still on the school holiday adventure train with loads of photos to share from days out places, so just gonna dump yesterday’s shenanigans right now. 

A visit to the National Space Centre in Leicester, on our way back from a Legoland trip. 🚀 

This place was awesome! A bit of an information overload (I found) but it was all so interesting. Reubs loved the interactive bits like the mini Hadron Collider and a Q&A screen that went through the mathematical distances between us and each part of the universe.  Mind blowing stuff. We had a late lunch literally beneath a massive rocket which was pretty cool and finished off with a ‘sky at night’ show in the Sir Patrick Moore Planetarium. Could’ve spent longer as it was great, however it could be improved too. Some of the displays could do with updating in terms of ‘00s aesthetics and silly bits about girls being made of stardust and then the alien bit is a bit dubious. And I definitely think there’s room for more artefacts, like it’d be amazing to see moon rock or something from space, or even see what life is like in the international space station. How do they wash in space? Do they grow plants? That’d be interesting.

Has anyone else been here?  What did you think of it? 🤔 We’ll definitely return but not sure if it’s worth the 2hour drive on its own when there’s The Centre for Life in Newcastle with a very good space area.
