But Rhys is most surprised when a massive whale passes by!

Hi elephant, no not too windy in Playmoland today! Grin

There’s a very diverse selection of sea life in Playmoland!

It was nice to get out some of the exotic fish etc from the expedition ship/tropical reef sets!

As you can see, the lifeguard service has now also resumed in Playmoland. Smile

Anyone else for some Playmo beach photos today? I'm afraid Rhys forgot to take a flask of tea to the beach though.

I didn't know Playmoland was in the Caribbean! What a lot of lovely fishy adventures for Rhys.

Nquartz · 27/08/2020 06:57

The whale was a surprise at the end Grin we're currently on holiday at the seaside and haven't seen anywhere near as much wildlife!

petalpower · 27/08/2020 07:06

I must have missed this yesterday! What an amazing selection of wildlife there is in Playmoland!

AvengingGerbil · 27/08/2020 07:37

I’m very glad that the cat didn’t scare off all the birds (especially the blue footed booby, surely the best bird name! What sort of set did that one come in?)

SoMuchToBits · 27/08/2020 09:16

The blue footed booby came with the Island Juice Bar set (which is one of the sets which go with the cruise ship which I used last year in the Playmo Summer Holidays thread). But it is a very good representation of the real life blue footed booby.

I've just had a most lovely lunch with @petalpower, and what's more we got 10% off (NHS discount)! Smile I expect everywhere in Playmoland will be offering NHS discounts...

Lovely lunch and particularly good profiteroles for pudding!

SoMuchToBits · 27/08/2020 20:30

I'm glad you enjoyed them! Smile

I'm working tomorrow, and have a friend round Saturday am, but may try to get a scene together on Sunday.

Only just seen this - it dropped off my list of threads I'm on so I had to search for you SoMuch! Smile Lovely sealife and Grin Grin Grin at the whale!

nosswith · 30/08/2020 19:47

I hope the whale is OK.

SoMuchToBits · 30/08/2020 20:27

The whale is fine thanks - it narrowly avoided being beached! Sorry I didn't have time to get any scenes together today. Still felt tired and went out to collect some books I'd ordered, had an impromptu lunch out and was entertained by some unexpected live music!

This week is a bit full on. I'm working tomorrow, Tuesday and Thursday, and have a lot to fit in on Weds and Fri before going on hols on Saturday. Was supposed to be going to Italy, but that has all been cancelled, so we are going to Broadstairs instead. Which I expect will be a bit like Lowbeach-on-Sea! Wink

SoMuchToBits · 04/09/2020 15:10

Last few days at work have been manic, so am still very tired. But today I have cleaned the house and done lots of washing. Just need to do the packing, then we're off tomorrow to Lowbeach Broadstairs.

Obviously there will be no Playmo photos for the next week! But may try to rustle up some more when I return. Smile

ChessieFL · 04/09/2020 20:43

Have a lovely time SoMuch

SoMuchToBits · 04/09/2020 23:29

Will do, Chessie! Can't wait! Smile

Lowbeach-on-Sea Broadstairs was lovely, as usual. All over too quickly. Spent today at local beach, working tomorrow night. Then a couple of days off before working weekend.

Seeing petalpower on Monday, then ds goes back to uni on next Weds. I will miss him. No scenes for a couple of weeks, but when ds has gone back to uni I may have time for one or two!

OP posts:
ChessieFL · 14/09/2020 21:04

Glad you had a good time.

SoMuchToBits · 14/09/2020 21:10

Ah, thanks Chessie!

Strange times being the end of summer and ds going back to uni. I've been used to having him around for the last 6 months! But the Playmo folks will have to keep me company instead. Smile

I assume they have a better coronavirus testing system in Playmoland! Can’t see Norman the Foreman letting it get into the state ours is in...
