Well, I did tell Mrs M I'd take the week off but I'm sure you'll all be glad to know we've arrived safe and sound in Slovenia ..... and it's pouring down! Sad

Still, the good news is there's a free "serve yourself" bar and we'll both be able to enjoy watching the football tomorrow after our first day's walking! Wink

TinWheeler,

  Further  to  our  comments  elsewhere  about  localised  weather,  it's  just  been  reported  on  BBC local  TV News  in  the  North  West  that  flooding  is  possible  in  any  parts  of  the  River  Weaver  Catchment  area,  inc  Crewe,  Nantwich,  Frodsham  etc  etc.  and  apparently  some  shops  in  the  Cheshiire  Oaks  Retail  area  have  had  roofs  collapse  under  weight  of  water  !!

Think  Its  agonna  be  waders  &  wellies  with  the  old  knitted  swimming  cozzy  tonight  !Surprised

Frightening  thought  but  a  worse sight  !!

OH has just gone into shock!!Surprised Where will she get her retail therapy now. She's just hoping that it's not the clothes shops that are affected. We are just planning to be down that way in early July, so perhaps by then all will be fixed.

JayEss  assures  us (!!)   its  The  Coliseum  including  Debenhams  or  some  such  place  not  the  Cheshire  Oaks  but  where  ever  it  was  its  still  soggy  Cheshire  at  present  !

Well that's a relief, as she doen't normally bother with those shops.Wink Just hope that the CL we booked tonight is not too wet.

We walked up to Snowshill, then across past the lavender fields and on to Broadway Tower. Some drizzly rain on the way.

We went to the cafe there and had a cream tea. While there, the heavens opened.

We hung about until it eased and then walked down the hill back to Broadway. By the time we got back the sun was out again.

The visit to the dentist didn't happen. Arrived on time only to be ask "Why are you here your appointmant's been postponed and we texted you" Surprised Seems the compressor had broken down so I've to go on Friday now. However it gave me time to visit the bank before leaving town. 

Managed to book our first site for our next trip this evening and waiting for a reponse from an e-mail about the next one.

Brue I'm dreading the state my garden will be in, they have had rain and sun so everything will have gone madLaughing I like the idea of opening your garden for charity, hope all goes well.

Our garden was a jungle when we got home, and so far we've filled one brown bin and started on the second!!Surprised Heavy rain, after a warm sunny day, put a stop to the weeding. Can feel the stiffness developing in my neck.

I have to ask, Nellie......what do they use the compressor for?

To drive the jack-hammer? Laughing
