Tintern Old Station

We went on an after school adventure took us to The Old Station in Tintern, a favourite local spot of ours to take a picnic to and walk through the woods, along the riverbank, through the meadows and generally absorb the beauty of the Wye Valley in which it’s nestled in.

It costs just £1 to park for 3 hours and is always open.

There’s a stationery train which double as a museum & gift shop during the day and a cafe that sells all sorts of yummies….but you’re free to take a picnic too.

The play park has recently been added to and you can check their websites for organised events if you’d prefer…we just like to visit to enjoy all the natural beauty it has to offer….

Instagram post 2196000192926709770_20180382 I wanted to say thank you 💕 
The response to our post this morning has been unexpectedly overwhelming, particularly on our Facebook page post in which I explained how grief feels, it seems to have resonated with an awful lot of people...please pop over and take a read.
Mostly though it’s very humbling that today Hollys voice reached so many people and prompted so much love, compassion and care. That means an awful lot. I held it together most of the day, mr FD is working away so we won’t be able to comfort each other, it’s the first time we’ve ever been apart on Hollys day, I bought an angel which I took to Holly House & laid on a grave, when I got home the 14 year old met me walking in the rain with some flowers...and I crumbled. (You can see how my day has been in our stories) .....but cake is now being decorated, we’ll blow out Hollys candles and Christmas will  begin.....💚🎄
Instagram post 2195568593500255553_20180382 13 years ago today you were born, 13 years ago today we said goodbye. I remember it like it was yesterday & always will, it will always be the most vividly remembered day of our lives, it seemed so unfair that xmas lights shone everywhere but the twinkle in your eyes went unseen. You left the world as you came into our lives but you did not leave it untouched, you left with us a better appreciation of life, a clearer view of the world & a better ability to see what's important.  We held you, we kissed you, we made sure we treasured every second that we were given to say goodbye, I still feel you, the memory of your coldness on my lips. The void is still there but today we smile for you, laugh for you, feel the sun for you, exude love for you. Everyday we remember you. Everyday we miss you, everyday you fleet through our thoughts & everyday you're nestled in our hearts. Today is your day. 
Happy 13th birthday Holly, we miss you baby, we miss who you would of been. 💚

Mum & Dad.
