Winter break

Wilson caught me reading his notes on the fridge door this morning.

He shuffled about for a bit, before suddenly announcing, 'Honestly, New Dad, you're looking a bit peaky. I think a break would do you good!'

I fixed him with a sceptical stare, but he brandished a brochure about Holidays in the New Forest at me, then continued. 

'You need some, er,  Autumn colour. Some light. You need to get away from it all…'
