Our eldest, Elliot, went to an 8th birthday party at Matlock Lido this afternoon (Happy Birthday, Jack!).

The Lido, which was opened in May 1938, has about to year to go until it closes as a new Leisure Centre and pool opens on Dimple Road in Matlock.

We went to Magna in Rotherham.

It's a great place to go, what with the playground outside and the water playground, as well as the 4 internal pavilions.

On the way into the Fire Pavillion you walk through a wall of fire....

We went to the Ashbourne Animal Welfare Gala Day.

What an awful event, full of really revolting people.

A great shame. I guess an event raising funds for an animal welfare charity that has a beefburger and hotdog stall has to be questioned...

Anyhow, there was a trad jazz band playing and I noticed the reflection in the bell of the sousaphone.
