Day 3 in Devon & Man On Fire


My daughter is a dirty rotten ice cream thief. But more on that later.

I woke late. Or rather I got out of bed late. Leia woke my wife and me early, but as I had been up late watching Man on Fire with my daughter she woke and looked after her while I slept.  

Man on Fire is an awesome film. I watched it many years ago, twice in fact. Once an edited version on a plane, and then a few months later with friends. I had bought it on DVD but it is in a box at home, but I have watched it and the deleted scenes.  It is an amazing film, one that still brings me to tears. It is the masterpiece that the character Creasy decides to create.

Anyway, after doing some shopping with my wife, we returned home. I hid some ice cream in the freezer to surprise my daughter with. We went to South Moulton to return to a shop that the others like while I took Leia for a walk.  After this it was a trip to North Moulton for lunch.  Lunch was okay, but nothing compared to the meal we had yesterday.

For dinner we had a takeaway, when there I bought some treats for my son, well for all of us, but it is my son who likes them the most.  I had chosen badly, and instead ate some ice cream that had been hidden. That was when my wife told my daughter about the other hidden ice cream. It is Strawberry Shortcake flavour and is one of my favourites. I was to let me daughter know about it later, but when she heard it was in the freezer, she found it, and then to ensure that I would not eat it, licked the top of it!


Anyway, I am about to take Leia out for a nighttime walk so she does not wake us up in the morning again. Good night!
