Rheged
    
Today didn't quite work out according to plan. After a fairly late start (Hey, it's Saturday! Whaddaya expect?!) we headed north towards Penrith. I had never been to this Rheged place and M**** had been but once, and that was a long, long time ago. I was loving the word 'WOOL', covered in various types and colours of wool, the boys dutifully posing in one of the O's. Anyway, it had shops, galleries, exhibitions and stuff. The cinema was just showing 'Ice Age 3', though, which we've all seen many, many times. Besides, we hadn't come to see a film; I just wanted a short 30 minute thing, just to get that crazy IMAX experience. But no . . . just Ice Age 3. So . . . we did a bit of shopping and then let the children play in a fairly grim children's play area. Grim in the sense that there was hardly any natural light, the air felt kind of . . . stale and the play area itself was small and really kind of designed for toddlers. Oh, and the advertised wi-fi didn't work. The inhumanity of it all. As we were leaving, R****** suddenly took a turn for the worse, looking decidedly ill, with a raised temperature and promptly fell asleep once in the car and slept all the way home. Whatever was wrong with R****** remained throughout Saturday, perhaps alleviated slightly by the medicine M**** administered. But mostly he slept . . .
