Day of rest

Good evening my friends, I hope that you've had a lovely day. We went to Ruffec for a drink and also check the market. Somebody told us that they'd sell some lovely honey there. However after celebrating our neighbour's 60's birthday last night we woke up so late this morning, after 10...we went to bed at 1:30 so no wonder!

So by the time we get to Ruffec, the market store are empty. We managed to get a bunch of carrots and very nicely the farmer gave us a bag of mixed salad leaves, cabbage and carrot tops for the rabbits, we appreciated his kindness. Steven recognised him and told me that they do go to Civray market too!

Let's chill!

That's it, I am officially on holiday. However when I woke up this morning, it took me a few seconds to realise that I didn't have to get ready for work..even though I don't work on Saturday of course! At work, last week, most people (including I) were counting the number of get up! And after our visit to Alton Towers, a complete success, smiles were on every faces!
We've just had a really nice bbq in good company, Verity and David came to see us for a chat and a lunch all the way from Bolton. Verity and I managed to get a bit of tan until one o'clock, after that it went overcast! So this was even better as we could enjoy the heat without burning..that is if we forget to put some more sun cream lotion! For desert, no chocolate cake, instead, Verity and David very kindly picked up our home-grown raspberries (that is, off our temporary accommodation) and with vanilla ice-cream (the last tab available at the local shop) we had a delicioso desert!
Imogen can't wait to go to her auntie Jacqueline's wedding in Missouri! and we need to load more stuff in the caravane..What are your plans for the summer?
Hope you are having a relaxing week-end! Yours in Christ. N.

Grilling!

A great day, parade in Stafford...

Saturday, we had a few bits to sort out in town and we forgot there was a parade. Well, we caught the end of it! It was a glorious day, the sun was out and it seemed everybody was out, happy and content. Teenagers were everywhere, socializing outside the cafes. on the way to the park! What a great day!
