Our family’s Saturday: ‘I can’t waste a sunny day lolling around’

Three people eating fish and chips at outdoor tables.

Wayne will come in all sleepy in the morning and curl up in bed with us for a bit. We’re normally absolutely broken and tired from the week, so we put on an audiobook for a bit for him to listen to. He’s really into RL Stine at the moment because he likes to be a bit spooked, although they’re still quite PG. But after about 20 minutes he’ll be itching for us to get up and have breakfast.

Once we’ve sorted our breakfasts, we will give him some time on his Nintendo Switch, because it might only be 7am and we all need to chill out for a bit before starting the day properly. Oliver might read a book and I’ll probably watch something on TV – it gives us all a little time to wind up to the weekend. We’ve normally been on the go all throughout the week, and this is just a time for us all to do whatever we want.
