What are you all up to today? - part 3

Friday and Saturday were very busy but it has gone quieter today. We passed by the sea front earlier and there were crowds of people sitting outside bars and restaurants, lots of people walking along the promenade near the pier. It's clouding over a bit now, nice cool breeze though!

We've only had one delivery to do so far this afternoon.

We're parked by Broadwater Green at the moment. There's no cricket on this afternoon, so plenty of available parking spaces. There are some caravans and motorhomes still parked on the other side.

Good  Day  Everybody  .  Hope  you  all  behaved   ,, ,, ,, ,, ,,

,, ,, ,, ,, .  Scampered  up  to  Bridgmere  Garden  Centre  ( A part  of  Wyevale  now )  to  look  for  "Nauticalia"  a  {theoretically}  sailing  based  trader,  for  a  couple  of  silly  things  before  this  branch  outlet  closes.  Got  a  couple  of  Royal  Scot  Mugs  and  a  nice   tea  caddy  to  match,  time  .

 

C U later,  bieee

Oh  Dear  Oh  Dear  Oh  Dear,

Just  perused  a  few  days  posts  on  'ere  and  discovered  I  can  rite  rubbish  wiv  the  best ( or  worst )  !! 

Royal  Scot  Mugs  &  Tea  Caddy  be  Damned  -->  of  course  they  weren't  !!  As  all  you  right  thinking  folk  knew  they  were  Flying  Scotsman  Mugs  &  Caddy  all  the  time  !!  And,  to  my  eternal  shame,   I  even  put  one    post  in  the  wrong  thread.  There  are  times  when  I  think  I  should  send  all  my  writings  etc  as  E-mails  to  my  lappy  first  then  I  would  have  to  read  them  before  they  go  out  to  the  great  wide  world.

Think  I'll  go  &   snack  on  some  little  green  apples,  sniff  sniff,  sob  ... .. .. .. ..

Finally decided on our 'summer' break and for a change decided to go north to Scotland instead of south to France -  for a change! Booked a CL in Wensleydale, then another near Alnwick, then Edinburgh club site and a CL near Oban for starters. Where next we don't know but will consider the weather....Oh yes...and its started to pour with rain again! Flaming June!

Keeps  the  midges  down,  Paul,  Keeps  the  midges  down 

And  its  but  a  few  hours  'til  the  nights  start  drawing  in   so  you'll  get  the  benefit  reet  oop  nawth  !!

, Getting the 'bit's & pieces ' ready for the road repairs tomorrow & Tue' Went out on a salvage mission to recover a 'R.I.B' that had sunk .Back home to refurb' repairs.Sunny & dry all day,Westerly breeze. 

Well, bike riding seems to be very popular on here.

We went off on ours this morning, did the circuit of Bredon Hill.....about 30 miles. There were loads of other cyclists out and I always like how they acknowledge you as they pass in the opposite direction (and one or two in the same direction )

After many diversions we finally managed to cycle to the confluence of the Maine and Loire rivers, the causeway that we usually use along the river maine had overflowed in quite a few places so we had to go around a differant way. 

This afternoon we took the trike out for a spin, decent weather does make a differance.

Now all packed up ready for the drive to Caen in the morning.

Is that you heading for home then, TG?

We still don't feel able / comfortable going for those really long breaks that you do. Don't know why, we are both retired and the van is there to use.....

Don't forget your midge protection if you're heading up the West coast, especially if it's warm, damp and still. Have a good trip.

What a horrible day here. Started raining before 2:00 pm and it hasn't stopped yet. Completed the hoovering and dusting in the van and started the polishing of the woodwork. With a bit of luck I'll finish it tomorrow, and we're be nearly ready for the off again.
