At the weekend the sun shone and we took the chance to visit Conkers discovery centre in Swadlincote, Derbyshire. It is an outdoor play and indoor discovery centre set in the national forest with so many activities to suit all ages. It’s somewhere we have been a fair few times before and I vividly remember going when Roma was just a week or so old.
For a while now, years in fact, we have been meaning to visit the National Memorial Arboretum. It is literally a 15 minute drive from us in Staffordshire and so there’s really no good excuse except we had just never gotten around to it. That is until a few weeks ago, and since then we have been back three times already – a testament to how amazing it really is.
