After coming back from my hols i had another week off from work. I spent this time doing some work on my house and pottering about the place. One day thoough i took some time off plastering and painting to take my Niece out to Bradgate Park. Bradgate Park is Leicestershire's largest and most popular country park. It comprises of 840 acres of land with grass, heath, bracken, rocky outcrops, small woods, herds of deer and the River Lin. The Park also includes the ruins of Bradgate House, the birthplace and early home of Lady Jane Grey (Nine Days Queen of England.) Old John Tower folly, a well known Leicestershire landmark, stands on the ridge of high land. (psst-yes i did just copy and paste that-lol). My Niece is about 18-19 months old so she loved feeding the ducks her (jam) sandwiches and looking at the deer (see the pictures i took above). Its only 4-5 miles from my house and it's just a lovely place to go and be away from town and such. AND yes...i was incharge of the pushchair and i did do wheelies with it while my Niece was in it. cackle!
