Everything but we managed to get everything setup and changed into dry clothes and settled in with sausages and chips for dinner (we have a little oven). The camp site was also a fishery with 4 lakes and a canal. I brought all my fishing bits with me and taught the kids how to fish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They loved it and what was even more precious? they both managed to catch a few fish over the weekend. D loved it as well, I had to wrestle one of the rods off her so the kids could have a go. I bought the kids a couple of poles but they found casting more fun so put two reels on.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It was so nice. Just relaxing by the canal. Catching the odd fish but that didnt matter. It was being outside, it was being with my family and an escape from the doom and gloom of the past few weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We went out for a posh meal and Nina the dog was allowed in as well. Of course we had to go to the see the legend that is the forrest. The trees were beautiful and you could really feel the history surrounding you. Seeing the villagers who used to travel through there and where the king would hunt. It used to be over 100,000 acres of land reserved for the king as hunting grounds (this is like 300 years ago) and anyone found plundering food or wood would be punished. Its only about 1,000 acres now but still. You can feel it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We got home late on yesterday and I&#8217;ve so far spent the day putting all the camping stuff back into the attic ready &amp; waiting for the next trip. Hopefully we&#8217;ll be going up to Edinburgh to see the family, and some friends at the end of the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new medication seems to be working, well its not new they just upped to the max dose which plays havoc in the morning when I take it for the first ten minutes but after that I feel better on them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We escaped the house and fled to Sherwood Forrest, where the legend of Robin Hood resides.
