Saturday trip out this week was to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, just off the M1. I'd heard good things from other parents, and I must agree it's a good trip out that crosses ages and interests. Certainly, I'm not switched onto Sculpture as a medium, though some of the pieces stirred something beneath even my philistine exterior.

Talia and I got on well, stopping for ice cream in the snack bar, and with plenty of space for running around, she had a ball. Her appreciation of sculpture is probably at about the same level as mine. The biggest, most striking ones were clear favourites, particularly the Rabbit-headed giants.
