Well there you are! I’ve only gone and dunnit!! Booked a holiday for next month. Two weeks in the sun. Risky? Maybe but we are both fully jabbed and of course we will both take great care. Anyway, as Freddie once sang…Who wants to live forever.
Thanx Di. We both decided that we needed to see the sunset in a foreign country. It’s been one hell of an eighteen months.
My friend & I loved visiting Stately Homes before the lockdown. This picture was taken in the Manor House at Lyme Park - owned by the National trust.
We are National Trust members and regularly visit a number of local properties. Ightham Mote for one and Chartwell for another. Chartwell which was where Churchill lived, The interior looks as if he is still there.
My Sister and her late Husband are members and was always interesting to hear of there latest visit to the various National Trust Houses Mansions etc…
This one looks amazing…
Well looking out the window right now and actually seeing blue skies I’m getting my brain in gear and planning some trips for when the ground has dried and is no longer a quagmire!
Can’t wait to get back to the local ’ hotspots ’ Worthing, Brighton, Eastbourne and back to a certain pub in Hastings Old Town!
Oh and definitely a trip to Kew during the Easter hols with a small but well stocked picnic basket and half a bottle of bubbly
Proper posh!!
Today we left Crawley for a long anticipated trip to Brighton.
First stop Whittard of Chelsea, my son, like his dad is very into his coffee and did a little shopping for some ’ luxury ’ beans for the mill.
Next stop our usual window shopping in Weston’s before walking on a few paces and checking out the written work in Quadrophenia Alley👍
How very strange, there’s more than one Chilliboot at large, you couldn’t make it up if you tried!
Putting my money where my mouth is on an entirely different topic I had committed myself to trying an oyster.Dear God, never, ever again will I put a mollusc in my mouth, it was truly awful!
Looked horrible, tasted horrible!
Thank heavens the pub was next door, I can still taste that bloody oyster, and some people actually like them
A nice little trip all things considered
Ha! The look on your face Never mind, at least you tried.
I bet you tagged that wall yourself before taking the photo…trying to be an influencer, eh?!
How very cynical!
No, really, the oyster was truly appalling!
I prefer to think of myself as a suggester
Yes why not, I think you’re onto something Pixie
Ok then, I shall take you up on your first suggestion, and never ever eat an oyster!
Oh yeah!
I tasted an oyster once, never again!
I never have and never ever no-way have the desire to ever not now not ever nope never would even want to touch one…except if I spot a Pearl!..Cleared that question up then… .
What a really lovely portrayed Day you had Chilliboot…Love Brighton for its twists and turns…
want brown sauce on that?
A generous dash of cyanide would be preferable d00d!
cyanide’s behind you, help yourself.
You say the nicest things!
