Snufkin enjoys the school holidays!






Snufkin was very lucky to spend the half term holiday with the Kirtley family.  Victoria made him a bed next to hers as soon as she took him home from school.  During the week they visited a restaurant, the park, Penshaw Monument and Herrington Country Park.  Snufkin went on a trip to York and saw lots of lovely sights, inclduing York Minster and the Hogwarts Express!  He is really enjoying his time in England and especially loved living with Victoria, Elizabeth, Mum and Dad for the week.  Thankyou Kirtleys!
