Good Old Cleveleys

On a cold and blustery day back in October last year William and I along with the Goodalls, packed a picnic, grabbed enough coats, hats and scarves to keep us all nice and toasty warm, loaded everything into Gary's van and headed to good old Cleveleys for a day by the sea.



There is nothing like a picnic on the prom.  The bracing sea air, the seagulls, the sea view and family to share it with make it a wonderful way to spend an afternoon.



Nicholas found a perch on which to consume his picnic.  I have several other pictures from over the years of Nicholas on this perch.


William was freezing so Victoria and Gary stepped in to warm him up with a group hug.


A daughter and her dad moment.


A mum and her son moment.


A family moment.


The boys had their bikes with them and had fun on the sand riding in and out of the water. This was a first, riding on the sand, as far as I can remember.


A grandson and his grandad moment.


And another of Nicholas sitting on his grandad's knee.  When he sat up there Nicholas remembered...


.. this baby picture of him and grandad and wanted to recreate it.  It made me smile because it was completely his idea.


Taken almost ten years ago to the day.  What a difference a decade makes!

We had a lovely time together that day back in October.  I remember though that Gary didn't feel too good.  I'm sure the fresh air did him a power of good though.

Until next time,

This is lovely.
I love all the pictures but those pictures of Nicholas as a baby on Grandad's knee are in my top 10 favourite pictures of all time!
