When the children were small I used to daydream about sitting under a big tree reading for hours on end uninterrupted. During the holidays I saw a window of opportunity to fulfil this dream!
The scene was set, the view was stunning, the weather perfect... surely this would be the day!
Alas no, there were games that needed to be played and football to organise and snack administration and toilet trips and ice-creams to be purchased and all the other great stuff. One day I will be able to sit under this tree and read all the day long, by then I'll probably wish I had someone to interrupt me!
