What are you all up to

New place to have snack next May, 

I feel guilty, apart from a visit to our elderly neighbours I have stayed inside in the warm today but it's nice to see some of you have been getting some fresh air! 

All  Hard  Work  in  Winter,  Trellis  mate  --  I'm  ploughing  thro'  all  my  photographs.  Got  as  far  as  Slide  7120  now,  only  64,000+  then  its  the  digital  jobbies.  Reckon  it'll  only  take  me  three ( 3 ) years,  always  assuming  I  dont  go  over-board  in  the  mean  time  !!  But  I'm  playing  loads  of  C.D.'s  and  hoping  my  new  neighbour  has  similar  tastes  or  she  is  very  deaf  !

Plenty  of  fresh  air,  Brue  'cos  I  always  have  a  window  open  and  right  now ( (17:20 )  its  clear  but  deepening  beautifully.

Don't  want  too  much  fresh  air  tomorrow  'cos  Tuesday  afternoon  I'll  be  in  the  very coldest  place  imaginable  since  I've, sadly,  got  a  visit  to  Hanley  for  a  funeral.  I  have  never  been  anything  other  than  cold  at  those  times.

Enjoyed my extra hour in bed, OH on the other hand had to get up to take the dog out, his body clock didn't allow for the extra hour! 

Caravan now back in storage for a few weeks, certainly very chilly up on the airfield where we store the van, beautiful blue sky though.

Daffy the MG made an appearance out of the garage this afternoon, bodywork  is almost complete, OH will then have to start on the mechanical bits! 

Cooking a Sunday roast, Pork with all the trimmings, not long to wait now, just time to open the wine.🍷 cheers 

Nice pictures Millie, and nice to see a dog friendly cafe opening at Clumber Park. 

And  somebody  heading, solo,  towards  the  entrance too, H & T ,  but  no  pups  in  sight  so  It  might,  just  might,  be  a  visit  to  the  'Icecream Bar'

Didn't get to enjoy the extra hour in bed this morning as next door's young children haven't got the hang of it yet 

Went to see eldest granddaughter at her school parade today, Battle of Trafalgar. We normally take her out for lunch after a parade but today she didn't want to go out, quiet happy spending time in school with her friends. Nice to see her happy and settled. Had to take a drive through to Stirling though as she had run out of black tights (forgot to take some back after half term) tights bought and delivered back to school on our way home to Perth.

The drive through to/from Dunblane was lovely with the snow glinting on the mountain tops and the trees putting on a good colourful show. Sun shining not a cloud in the sky, what a beautiful day.

We had a hard frost this morning and looks like we will have another tomorrow, don't mind if its a lovely bright day. Jobs to do outside and still some stuff to bring in from the caravan so another busy day.

Fitted a new toilet flush pump to the motorhome and checked it over ready for a few days away in a couple of weeks time ...

Hope you have a great time away HD, are you off to the New Forest? 

We left Hurn Lane this morning after making full use of every facility available, got to get max usage considering prices charged! Short drive over Avonmouth on M5, then off onto A38 and a pleasanter drive to Berkeley Castle. Very interesting place, enjoyed it more than Alnwick or Warwick, not as commercialised. We couldn’t get in at a rather nice CL we fancied, so have opted for an old standby, Notgrove Club Site. Last night open this, but suits us fine. Decent price, and not far from Sudeley Castle which is tomorrow’s must see. We drove our old route through Painswick and really enjoyed all the Autumn woodland colours. We are one of only three on site here tonight. Just looking for a CL for tomorrow night now.......
