Porthcawl Surf School Review – Kids Surfing in Rest Bay.
As guests of Bridgend, we had a few activities arranged for us – but when they suggested a Porthcawl Surf School Review, I gracefully declared myself and the husband out of the invitation. Naturally I accepted happily on behalf of the children. Oh, come on. Surfing in Wales – in February? Be serious. On top of which, there’s the whole wetsuit thing. No, I think not, thankseverso though. So, after a fabulous morning...
Coming alive, it’s coming alive… Horrible Science is coming alive…

Last week we were invited to visit the Sea Life Centre in Weymouth. We haven’t been for a lo-o-ong time, but we took No.1 son on his FIRST birthday 13yrs ago (he loved to see the fssshes), and have had a few great trips there over the years so we were keen to go and catch up, and introduce 6yr old Pink to the fsssssshes.
