It was so hot all weekend and temperatures reached the high 20’s. We had some sun worshippers in the group but some needed help cooling down.

We spent the weekend paddle boarding, kayaking, eating, drinking, laughing and having a good old catch up.
In our previous Croft Farm blog we discussed the poor facilities but avoided them this time choosing to turn a blind eye. If you want to read that blog click here
Unlike me (Sam) I didn’t take many photos at all probably due to being in the moment and enjoying the company but I have cobbled together a gallery from different sources which hopefully will give you a sense of place.

Whilst packing up I (Sam) got a call to say my mom had been rushed to hospital so it was straight to the hospital and an abrupt end to a lovely weekend.
Update: mom is doing well and out of hospital having had a pacemaker fitted. She spent a week in hospital and a week at our house and she was more than ready to return home.
