We headed out to the Steam Rally this morning to see some of the old cars and steam engines. It has been coming for years now and we've never been but have watched the engines trundling to and from as it's held in the fields nearby. It was much bigger than expected and there's lots to see - so definitely worth a visit if you get a chance.

I've added a few photo's to mums birthday album. Enjoy the rest of your birthday mum! 

I awoke this morning to the news that the vote was in and Britain were out. I have to say it hasn't quite sunk in. I placed my vote on Thursday evening fully expecting to remain in the EU. The thought that a campaign to leave, riddled with rhetoric about closing borders and fronted by amongst others, UKIP's very own Nigel Farage, seemed like such a remote possibility that it hadn't even entered my mind that Leave was a possibility.

The outcome was a shock! It would seem over time I have surrounded myself with likeminded people. My facebook feed is full of people expressing similar disbelief. It simply never crossed my mind that this would happen, and that clearly 52% of people hold a very different outlook. I worry about what the future may hold.

Right now the pound has slid to a 30 year low, the government is squabbling for power on all sides and the primeminster has resigned. There seems to be a rise in racist outbursts all over the country and Britain feels like a very divided place. It remains to be seen what will happen, over the coming months and years but right now I feel that Britain has lost something, something that we may now never get back.

we are in Interlaken we have 24 seconds internet left and counting. FIN
