Am now caught up in horrible tide of pessimism (probably nothing to do with holidays, am nearing my 12 wk scan and dreading it because I have Previous with 12 wk scans, and we're also, incidentally, trying to get house on market before we actually go to Dorset. Arghhh!) and convinced it will pee it down for entire fortnight. The cottage we've booked is lush (old, lovely interiors but childsafe, pretty garden, comfortable) so it's not going to be horrible if we have some rainy days indoors with DS's trainset, but obviously we could do that at home!
DS is 2.3 and looking forward to 'seaside stuff'. I have no probs with sitting on the beach in light drizzle (half of me is English, after all!) but it's going to be dispiriting if we do that all the time. What sorts of things are there to do in West Dorset (staying near Beaminster) when it pours? We already know about Monkey World.
Alternatively, slap me about the head and tell me not to be so stupid, it'll be nice and sunny!
