Swinging

Its been pretty warm recently so we decided to ride down to one of the rivers and have a paddle, play pooh sticks and see what we could see.

First off Worrybomb waded in to play with the big kids who were trying to dam the river ( part of an old mills sluice ).  Big Brother also waded in and found a huge crab claw!

Then the pair had a go on the rope swings that had been put up in one of the huge old trees over the river.

At first the swings were tentative experiments.

But then style and distance stated to increase. Its possible a third swing might be recovered and put to use!

Until the legs-a-kimbo style was hit upon.

Then back on the bikes and a cheeky footpath ride took us around the village and home.
