Nite nite YG, sleep well <3 <3 <3

Morning all

Change in schedule this week as MiL has a medical appointment. We’ve had to get up early just to make it :-0

Catch you later....if we don’t have a snooze when we get back!
Have a good day.

Morning all, off out in a minute to the chiropodist. Had a good if long day yesterday, left home at 0830 and got in at 7pm. It was warm but much cooler than recently so just right for our trip. We drove to church Stretton first to drop off the walkers and to have coffee, had 45 minutes there, beautiful area lots of school children stream dipping and having fun. The coach then took 23 of usthe 14 miles back to Ludlow. OH and I visited the castle first, it really is one of the nicest castles we have seen, the building of it covers several different styles. I managed to get OH up one spiral staircase (and down again), he doesn't like heights but it was a good way of seeing the view of the surrounding countryside. We had lunch next which was in a restaurant just outside the castle called castle lodge. Then we had a long walkabout. There are apparently around 500 listed buildings in Ludlow, most of them black and whire. (white with black beams. I took loads of photos as the whole place was very photogenic. We went in the church (St Lawrence) which had some lovely stained glass and lots of ornate carvings. By then we needed a sit down so we went into one of the oldest continual serving inns in England (Maybe Britain not sure), it was 600 years old called The Rose and Crown. We had a glass of wine each and sat in the sun in their courtyard to drink it.
Lastly we walked round the outside of the castle walls and back to the square to wait for the coach while eating an ice cream.

Ann, that sounds a fantastic day out with lots to see. If only we lived closer!

Medical appointment went off well. She couldn’t remember why she was there. Nothing untoward with the readout & to go back in 6 months time.

Stand for the fan has still not surfaced. FiL had forgotten his promise to check the broom & boiler cupboards. We’ve come to an agreement that he looks tomorrow, just in case, & we’ll order a new fan if he forgets or doesn’t find it.

OH is settling down for his afternoon snooze :-D

Evening all, I have just come in from 3 and a half hours in the garden. That after a morning in the Belfry has cream crackered me completely. :-D

Not surprise LG. You've more energy than most of us.

Evening everyone :-)

It is another hot one today so the fan might be on tonight at bedtime :-0 :-0 :-0

Ann, you certainly packed a lot into the day out yesterday. Are you both shattered today after all the walking? :-) :-)

DET, it's good to hear that m.i.l. doesn't have to go back for another six months. I hope you have the date on your calendar!! Maybe the stand for the fan will turn up tomorrow if f.i.l. remembers to check.

LG, you have been busy in the garden again!! Is there much left to do now? :-0

Another salad for me tonight, although I don't really want it at the moment :-0 :-0

Evening YG, I am getting there just the last bit around the side that needs levelling off a bit

Hi LG. You will be pleased when it is finished in this heat :-0 :-0

I most certainly will YG. It was quite cool this morning but I was in the Belfry. By the time I got home and sorted lunch it had turned quite warm

It has been hot here this afternoon right up to about an hour ago and now it is cooling down and there is a breeze through the window, thank goodness :-) :-)

I am just off to finish getting my salad ready, but will be back :-)

Evening all I have been busy today did lunch and then leaders meeting ,I have started slowly swapping cupboards around or rather the contents of them .I have found some odd items stuffed in odd places ..

Evening Maz, I have found some wonderful things in my cupboards in the past.

Salad eaten and feet up now :-)

Evening Maz. Would you like to come and do my cupboard for me, pretty please :-D :-D

I have my feet up but will have to get off my butt in a short while and water the garden :-D

I love digging out cupboards to see what I can find lol

Come to mine then Maz, there must be loads of lost treasures lurking somewhere :-D :-D

Cuppa time for me :-)

I'll have a coffee please. Put it in a holder and send it over on the catapult :-D :-D
