Hello, Elle!
I have had a fine time with my son!
Thank you for info on the Adventure Learning.
Changed times since I was at school!
Seems like a very good idea, indeed.
Are you going to visit them in the future to see what are they up to?
Any word from Paper Cavalier?

Hi, Rusty!
Yes, changed times indeed since my own primary school days.
I do not recall our ever leaving the school premises for an activity of any nature!
I don't know if this present venture can be considered expensive?
"Adventures" cost £120 for a class of up to 32 pupils, and each session goes on for approximately two hours.
I wonder who meets the cost?
The school, the local Council, the parents ?
Does it count as a school "trip"? An extra -curriculum activity? An essential lesson?
If the children are charged individually, it would cost very little.
I could maybe ask the guy, if I see him about the park again.......
Maybe collecting his water samples!
No word from Paper Cavalier itself.......I think our communication with them is over, now that Amazon has assumed responsibility.
And Amazon tells us that the money is being paid back onto my husband's Barclaycard.
The statement should arrive within the next day or so...so we shall then be able to check that out.
And hopefully, that will be an end to the matter!

My grandson's primary school would charge for this kind of thing and have a fund for those children whose parents can't or won't pay. Swimming lessons are compulsory but charged for!
There will be a collective sigh of relief when you finally get the postage costs back, elle.

At least it will have been a blow struck for the underdog, Ros!

Good morning, Elle!
A fine frosty day here!
Let's hope Amazon have sorted out Paper Cavalier to your husband's benefit!
I am heading out with Miss La Bamba today!
Between Uni and work, this is her only day off nowadays!

Good morning, Rusty!
A beautiful day here......bright blue sky an sunshine..... very frosty......so hard ground, and thus clean dog!
A most enjoyable brisk walk.
How far afield are you and Miss L-B going today?
I hope you both have a good time!

Good afternoon, Elle!
Great weather today!
Miss L-B and me went to our usual haunt and had a fine outing!
Then she was off to town to meet her pal.
Did you learn any more at the park today?

Hi, Rusty!
I am only just home!
The weather has been so lovely that I have been out for most of the day, enjoying the sunshine!
I am glad that you and Miss L-B enjoyed your brunch (?) at the Pine Cone!
No, no sign of the "Adventure" man in the park today!
But he will not be easily missed...
Cars are not normally allowed in the park.....but he has special permission to drive his bright orange car, as he is there in a professional capacity!
So he will be easily spotted!
I have not had time to look at the crossword today...did I miss anything of note?

Hello, Elle!
Been a fine day here, too.
Your Adventure Man maybe only goes to the park on certain days?
Yes, you missed a good puzzle!
I found it quite tricky today, which I prefer.

Good evening, Rusty!
Well, I do not always go to the same park....
We are very fortunate around here in that we have quite an abundance of parks/ commons / fields / woods in which to walk the dogs.
I do prefer, though, to go to the larger parks when possible, as my dog likes a good run.
I have just been browsing through the new TV guide.
I see that BBC1 is showing three hours of Athletics tomorrow!
The Birmingham Indoor Grand Prix.
Wonderful!
