premise: Trying to think what has been happening since I last wrote ... we had my mum staying here for 3 weeks , which was fabulous . It 's been 3 yrs since I saw her last and it was so hard to have her leave . We had a great time while she was here - we went fruit picking and nearly made ourselves sick eating blackberries and raspberries , and did lots of day trips . Why did we go fruit picking ?
hypothesis: We needed to get some fruit , plus it was bonding time .
