Walk Two Hundred and Ninety-Three – Jumping in puddles

Rain, rain, rain all day. I tempted Xavier out for a walk with the prospect of all those puddles to jump in. So up to the Bluebell Wood and back. The water running down the track was like a miniature river with whirlpools, eddies, falls and backwaters. Xavier was a giant striding through the water and a walking bridge straddling the river.

Earlier in the day, before our walk, we were taking Tom to the cinema and Xavier excitedly pointed out a ‘car shop’. He then thought a little and said ‘Mummy when you buy a car from a car shop, how do you take it home?’
