What are you all up to

H & T,  most  unkind  to  tell  me  you've  bought  some  Lardy Cake  .  It's  my  preferred  Emergency  Sugar Level  Maintainer,  when  I'm  ambling  round  the G D S Fair  .  Takes  almost  no  carrying  at  all  .

B2,  hoping  &  praying  that  the  standard  of  care  your  OH  receives  from  now  on  is  even  better  than  you  are  hoping  for  !  It  seems  utterly  appalling  that  certain  units  of  the  "Caring  Profession"  just  don't  seem  to  care

Our Gig going is still ongoing. Last night we went to see Megson at Kendal Brewery Arts Centre. I've been waiting for them to come to a venue near us, and it was worth the wait. Uplifting songs, beautiful harmonies, wonderful string playing and interaction with the audience.

One song off their new album was very true to life (they all were) - click on the link to listen.

Tonight we having a belated Burns Night Supper. I bought a large Haggis at a knock down price and stuck it in the freezer until we had enough people round the table to justify it. Tonight there will be nine of us, so it's - 

Haggis, Neeps & Tatties. And my interpretation of Cranachan converted into a crumble.

OH may get his tartan waistcoat and bow tie out.

 

Goldie we're having haggis too but ours will be haggis and bacon rolls for breakfast tomorrow morning. In the caravan on a lovely quiet CL watching the sunrise and birds sing. 😊

Thinking about you Bakers. You do have to keep an eye on things once loved ones go onto Wards. I hope each day improves for you steadily, as it should.

Nellie, the heki is fully fixed and back in, saved a packet with OH doing job himself. This lovely weather made things easier. All done from inside MH as well. We have just bought a few items to put in ready for off, but we won’t decide where until we get a weather forecast next weekend, West or East. We prefer North Wales, haven’t been for quite a while, and folks suggested some lovely new to us sites, and most of the big castles are likely to be open. We want to have a look around Dolgellau area as well, as I have found a cottage that might suit for Mum later in year. It could be all off touring wise if weather changes, if that happens I will book a late cottage. We can hunker down round a stove and take the Jeep for a play if it snows!😁

Another decent day here today, not so much sun but mild enough.

Went for another bike ride 10 mile this time, taking it easy just now to get back into it as we haven't been on them since end of October.

OH finished the fence panel this morning while I was sorting out indoors.

Off to see Mum tomorrow morning, then think we will pop out to a dealers to have a look around. We are not going to buy but OH missed the shows so want to have a look see 

Bakers, hope OH (and yourself) has a better day today.

NTH, yes we are off again next week to Lanzarote. We are already planning our trip away in the van though, we haven't used it since October so itching to get away again. 

Haggis is thought to have been first been eaten by the Border Reavers and not an original over the Border "delicacy"

Another brilliant sunny day with temperatures hitting 17C.  Went to Lackford Lakes and watched a couple of kingfishers flirting, fantastic.  

Visited a cousin in Dianne T’s neck of the woods, unfortunately didn’t have time to see Dianne and John.

Back at van and night sky is stunning

Glad that you've perhaps found the source of the problem, Kjell. Hope that it comes back from it's service all sorted and ready for your trip. Enjoy.

Good to hear that OH has fixed the Heki. By the look of the forecast the next couple of weeks promise to be fine. We're trying to decide if we should go to Wales or Scotland after Easter, so we too are looking for sites in both areas and the very long distant forecast. Should you go to Wales and find some good sites it would be good if you could point them out to us, you know the type we like.
