And They're Off!

We've just said goodbye to the girls as they head to the Lake District for three days together, walking and enjoying the Spa at their hotel in Ambleside.  They'll be stopping en route to do the Ingleton Falls Walk and there'll be much catching up and reminiscing and talk of music and books. I've banned politics! Jenny has taken a stack of jigsaws which I've finally decided to de-clutter (aargh!) 

We're having cuppas, the house is quiet again (not always a good thing) and we are preparing ourselves for Drying Ground work afternoon.  I shall go up there shortly and set out the Nature Trail.  The weather is looking mixed but hopefully some brave neighbours will venture out with their forks and secateurs.
