Maureen's 80th bash

 This week my great-aunt Maureen turned 80, and invited us all to Swindon (a meet-in-the-middle between Cardiff, Exeter, London, and Basingstoke) to celebrate with her. 

We were joined by our other Farmer/Brook family and played a couple of games of bowling. I have discovered that bowling in a straight line is not one of my specialist skills, and managed to win last place overall. 

Following this we were treated to late lunch at a lovely Italian restaurant. 


On Sunday Mark I had a productive day of lie-ins, climbing/running, and then joining our friends to watch Project Hail Mary in the cinema - very accurate to the book, but when compared to The Martian (another film based on an Andy Weir's book) there wasn't enough disco music.
