Rye, East Sussex

 


Am still suspended from Twitter.  Which is still annoying but I expect it to continue for a long time.

Back to the holiday though.  It rained a lot last night which woke us up at different times at night.  And then the local cockerel decided to wake us up.  Which it has been doing since we arrived.  

So in the morning the kids were up when I ate the remnants of the takeaway from last night and then my daughter and I went for a walk.  I had asked my son but he was not interested.  We went to find the wild ponies that I had seen yesterday.  But they were not to be found.  We did walk down a path to find them but my daughter was concerned that the ponies would attack us and that birds would feast on our corpses.  So we turned around.  We did walk everywhere that she wanted to go, which put her in a bad mood.  

We then went on a drive to Rye.  It was lovely driving through the sun but once there, the heavens opened.  Fortunately this was only for a short period of time and we walked through part of the town before stopping for lunch.  Initially we had only wanted to stop for a snack, but the place was so nice we stayed for longer.  We drove to Battle afterwards but it was too crowded to walk about in a safe manner.  I have always wanted to visit here so we will have to return another time.

I did have a chat with my son about bonding.  After my father died, and watching Life on BBC, I wanted to act to try and bridge the increasing gap between us.  We have watched The Mandalorian together before, but he has decided to watch it without me.  I go for walks with my daughter and we watch several television shows together.  I hope that my son and I do not drift apart beyond the point of repair.

Tomorrow it is meant to rain a lot more so our day has been planned in advance.  Hopefully I will have Twitter back but I doubt it.
