There was a funfair in the meadows today, so we popped along despite the fact that it was raining. It was - predictably - loud and garish and tacky, but there were a few kiddie rides and Holly had a fun spin on a double decker bus. After that, we met Pete and Leo at the new playground at the east end of the meadows where it was still raining but Holly and Leo showed their Scottish stoicism and had fun anyway, even managing to get even wetter playing with the Archimedes' screw and the waterwheel. Holly got so wet she needed a complete clothes change, and the boot of the peoplemobile had more than enough capacity, even if we hadn't actualy brought any dry clothes. Helen's t-shirt was pressed into service and we all tootled home, pleased at having made the best of a wet afternoon.
