Valentine's House in ilford has been restored and looks wonderful

The gardens have also been restored and parts look like they did when Sarah Ingleby lived there

Almost thirty years ago we lived in Ingleby Road - just behind the park, and walked and ran there almost daily when the boys were small

It's been a hectic couple of weeks - family staying, up to nine people over last weekend and going away in the middle of it.

No real time upload blips - but plenty of photos!

Backblips start here for a bit of the seaside
