The Two Hills Race in Chagford today went ahead in bad weather although we stayed safe at Colin and Junes. A quick trip up into the Square meant that we got wet but saw very few people.

The strollers rain cover preformed well, and we collected a gift in Bowden’s which was nice. Bowden’s sell everything you could want to hope for, and Heidi I think may wish to become an ironmonger in time as she was fascinated by all the stuff hanging over her head in the shop.

No one was in the Buller’s Arms as we passed and so returned back for a great roast beef lunch.

On the way back we pop into the church yard to see Fred's grave which is looking a little windswept. We pick over the flower heads and tidy him up a bit, with Heidi in our arms. It starts to rain heavily so I trot up the path back to the car, whilst Rachel drops the old flowers in the compost. No one else is in the graveyard, just the three (or four...) of us.

Heidi seems to be getting hungrier at the moment which is good but means more nappies of course. We are hoping that her bum will fill out shortly so that the fabric reusable ones can come out, just as her big brother once used.
