More weekend highlights

Another busy weekend with new friends...

Friday night saw us next door with Lucy and Ava playing with a water table (plastic table with two big bowls where you put the water in and then the toddlers have fun scooping out the water with cups and throwing it around). Andrew came home from work and couldn't find us until he jumped over the fence. Lucy had a ball!

On Saturday Terry, Petra and William invited us to have high tea with them at the Wilmington Tea Room 'enjoying tea by the sea'. Located on Water St we had a great view of the huge thunderstorm going on, with lightning hitting the main bridge. We had a 'full tea' which comprised of many sandwiches, cakes, scones and cookies. Alas no clotted cream but the ham and cheese sandwiches were on cinnamon swirl bread, an unusual but tasty combination. William had a 'wee tea' for kids and Lucy just played around with the cheese sandwiches and flowers. Even with Andrew there we couldn't finish all the goodies on offer.

On Sunday we had lunch at Andy & Melba's and met Kathy from Glasgow. We had a great time talking, eating and playing with space shuttles. Then off home to eat strawberries and cream while watching (for 3.5 hours) Federer defeat Nadal in the Wimbledon final.
