After unpacking in the chalets, we went down to the pool, which we had booked for a swim. The pool was heated, the sun was shining, a lovely start to our holiday!
Oxford Phab at Avon Tyrrell in June 2017 – the beginning
When does a Phab holiday begin ?

We collected the order and when we unpacked it the box was full of little individual orders labelled with who… Continue reading Noodle Night
