We decided to have a proper day out today, before school starts tomorrow. We all went over to Eureka in Halifax, on the train, with Jo, Tom, Anna and Adam.

The first time I went to Eureka was with Toby when he was about 3 or 4. About half the museum is the same, the rest has been changed. I think it was the first totally interactive science museum I had been to and it really impressed me. Now, after going to lots of others, particularly Magna, it seems much less exciting. The children still enjoyed it and got a lot out of it. I expect that this will be the last time Toby goes - I was quite surprised that he wanted to go today.

We got back home and had fish and chips for tea. John and Rose are in bed now, as is Cindy who is exhausted after her chemo yesterday.
