Perfect autumn weekend

We had such a lovely weekend! Rhodri was away on Friday so we started the weekend without him by putting on a film and getting ready to have pizza for dinner. But just as we started this, our friends Danni, Neve and Blythe called by followed shortly by their dad Bryn. So they joined us for the pizza and a showing of "Kung Fu Panda" -- kids watching the film while us adults chatted and enjoyed some gin & tonics. But then the movie finished and it was still early so we put on "Annie" and all heaped onto the couch to watch together. A lasting memory of this Friday night is of all 7 of us snuggled together singing "Tomorrow" at literally the tops of our voices.

Then on Saturday we tidied the house while half-watching the Wales v France rugby semi-final. Sadly, Wales lost by 1 point. Rhodri came home in the early afternoon and by then our friend Felicity was over to play with Rhiannon. It was clear, warmish and very autumny all day so we mostly just pottered around in the back garden. At some point our friends Emma, Rob, Sophie and Oscar dropped by asking if we wanted to walk down to the pub. So we rounded everyone up and ambled down to the Coach & Horses.
On our walk down to the pub, we saw Angus on his bike. So then he ended up gathering his family and joining us there as well. Here is the scene - kids playing and adults chatting.
Good times!
