I'm currently halfway through a very much needed two week holiday and I think I've finally unwound enough from assorted work and family stress to realise how tired I am. We spent last week having a gentle staycation at home.
On Monday we went to Slimbridge Wetlands Centre and ambled around admiring the birds:


There were a truly surprising number of flamingos there:

...and a very odd looking chicken. Not sure what breed that one was:

We pottered out to Weston Super Mare on Wednesday to visit the tiny museum there as they currently have a Paul Kidby Discworld exhibtion. I spent quite a lot of time giggling at the descriptions and I was not the only visitor doing that. The musuem has some exhibition space downstairs and a very nice cafe and the permanent town history exhibits are upstairs. I'm still a little confused about this sign though:

Is a Werechurch a church by day or by night?
