What are you all up to today? - part 3

Missed posting yesterday, so we are now on site on the Wirral. Today we went ot Cheshire Oaks for a bit of retail therapy for OH and managed a couple of walks with Flyte in the local Country Parks. Got back to the van to see the major part of today's stage of The Tour, and then went out on the bike myself this evening for 1.5 hrs along the Wirral Way.

Looks as if we have a Nissen X-Trail rally on the site, as it's full (well 6 vans actually) and ours is the only vehicle that's not a Nissan 4x4!

Had a nice snack in a pop up sea food restaurant at Carlyon Bay , it made  nice change from sitting in the conservatory.

Have they started work on the housing yet?

We go for a look each year, but up to last September it looked like a bleak, abandoned building site with a few cabins.

Must be costing the developer a fortune. How can it still be viable?

No change as far as I know, Ian. I don't go down there very often as it's such an eyesore.

Just had a topsy turvy couple of days as we've had our 30+ year old hot water system(tank and all) replaced. Had to move all sorts of things so all radiators etc could be drained down. Gave us a good excuse to do some reorganising

all done now, nice neat job, trouble is we've now got the heating on to test the system and check for airlocks. It's a bit warm

a day later, test of new system had a hiccup, radiators getting really hot but no hot water. OH and plumber now chasing air round the system‼? Some very strange gurgling noises

Mrs S reporting again.

One very hot OH and plumber but problem solved. Phew‼?(In more than on sense of the word) what you get for having an antiquated heating system. Now just have to wait and see if we get any leaks

Perhaps we should come and join in with our Nissan XTrail

Is that Charlestown in your avatar, Canenriot!

Write your comments here...Yes it is , my son took the photo last September when visiting us.We love walking to Charlestown from Carlyon with the dogs. We moved to the area a couple of years ago and really love living down here there is just so much to do , love walking over the Clay Trails as well and we are lucky to have all this on our door step.

Late posting today as its been a lovely day here, the best we've had since we got back. Been busy in the garden all day (nothing new there) OH has been tinkering in his man cave, he's supposed to be sorting it out as he needs a new one (its starting to lean to one side and the roof is sagging) Lots of garden waste to take to the skip tommorrow (OH) once I've got back from picking Mum up. Got lots of washing done and dry, towels had a good blow on the line they smell great now. Even managed to find time to just sit in the garden, admiring all my hard work while having a cuppa  hope this means that summer has finally found its way here.

Glad your having a good time with the family MH.

Bakers" can't believe its almost time for you to go to NZ again, where has the time gone.

Ah, a newcomer! Welcome to our area, Canenriot. 

Fabulous day yesterday,  weather was great after we woke up to rain. I am really liking Suffolk.  Wonderful walks and wildlife. Couldnt go into Minsmere as we had the dog and it was too warm to leave him in the car.  Walked the coastal path instead. Off to Southwold today.
