October 2010 - Diggerland


Last week saw us at the Diggerland Theme Park in Kent to have a go on some real diggers, dumpers and JCBs. As the only couple there with no kids or grandchildren in tow, we did feel a bit of a fraud. (The thought of taking a token grandaughter along did occur, but she’s only 2...)

You spend the time digging holes and then filling them in again. Very creative. If you're really lucky you get to move one heap of dirt from one side to the other. Sad to admit, but it was great fun and has helped our confidence no end.

Those machines are not that difficult to operate so we feel more ready to have a go on our own site. Can't wait to hire a digger of my own ... might even buy one and go shopping in it. Trundling up and down the aisles in Asda, scooping up the groceries, ... I digress.
