We have an annual gathering at my mum's cousin's house in Suffolk and today was this year's. They live in an old pub with lots of land out the back so we camp in their field - there is also a trampoline, swimming pool, play equipment, a tractor, a marquee, a fire area and a tiny tractor with a trailer that we can drive! It's pretty uncomfortable to sit on though. We convoyed over here early this morning in three cars as Sarah's James had to be back for DJ'ing tonight, and James and I have to leave early in the morning for a birthday party. We had an immense lunch before hiding in the house and in the marquee for shade as it was so hot! Their new pool is massive and nearly everyone went for a dip but I had the beginnings of sunstroke so I stayed out of the sun but as the sun went down, we got comfy to watch some of the men play boules. Here, Parger had obviously won the match but they were all quite good. Normally we play rounders in the day time but it was far too hot so we had to wait until after seven to play. It was still boiling hot! We've just had a fantastic barbecue and now we're sitting around on camping chairs slowly getting a bit cold. At least I won't be too hot tonight to sleep!
