A few months ago two lovely friends Janet & Olly asked if we would like to join them in a short trip to the Isle of Scilly. Of course it took a few seconds to accept. Another friend & neighbour Richard is also joining us. So we are off on Friday and I’m so excited.Continue reading “A trip to the Isles of Scilly with Mr Silly!”

The Advantages of a Daughter working in Aesthetics!
Once a month or so I help Joolia with her bookkeeping! This seems to have replaced my previous job of school runs and occasionally prepping supper for the Gilvey’s. Now that the granddaughters are both driving and excellent cooks I am almost redundant! So I pop along to Thorpe End with the excuse of catchingContinue reading “The Advantages of a Daughter working in Aesthetics!”
Time to Go Home To Blighty
I was up very early worried about our only clean undies left outside all night after we had heavy rain! Dried them on the room heater while I finish packing which seems much easier than the rush before we came out. I strip the bed and put a load of washing in Rita’s machine. IContinue reading “Time to Go Home To Blighty”
Super Sunday
It’s a fabulous sunny day. 18c but a strong wind. We sit on the balcony enjoying the sun. David FaceTimes his children about their mum’s wedding the day before. Rita is busy washing and ironing. Today we are meeting friends for lunch so reluctantly I leave the sun and get ready for our trip downContinue reading “Super Sunday”
A Fun Day at Ché Turnbull.
It’s a bright start to the day but cold and windy. 11c. DT has risen early and walks into the village to pick up his car, on to physio then picks up the usual fresh bread rolls for breakfast. Today the Turnbulls have invited friends for lunch. We leave Rita to prep for lunch whichContinue reading “A Fun Day at Ché Turnbull.”
Happy Birthday David Turnbull.
It is our hosts birthday. I have brought cards over from Norwich from some of David’s children so I pop these under his door. David leaves for his physio at 8am. It’s pouring with rain – not the best weather for a birthday. While he is out we shower and dress. I FaceTime with JooliaContinue reading “Happy Birthday David Turnbull.”
Monday. Another adventure
We wake to lovely sunshine. Judy is all packed and ready for her flight home today. We all decide to go into Luz to have bacon rolls and coffee. Today we are going to Seville for a few days. On the way we drop Judy at the airport. Such a shame she can’t stay longerContinue reading “Monday. Another adventure”
Sunday Funday
I wake with a thumping headache, sore throat & earache. However the sun is shining and hubby brings me me a cuppa served with a huge smile and several kisses. Apparently I’ve been snoring, nobody else complains so hopefully the walls are thick enough in the house to muffle it all! We have a leisurelyContinue reading “Sunday Funday”
It’s The Weekend Already…
Saturday. 11c sun & cloud. A very leisurely start to the day. Rita drives us all to a little fishing village called Burgau five minutes drive from their house. It’s a typically charming unspoilt village. A steep windy drive down very narrow cobbled streets to the beach. The village relatively quiet until we reached theContinue reading “It’s The Weekend Already…”
Baby Boom Birthday
The end of the Second World War brought the “baby boom“ which included my dear hubby. Roger Edward Cawdron born 25th Feb 1945. He often tells me part of Norwich was bombed that day but they narrowly missed the nursing home where he was born. Today he wakes very early like a child at Christmas.Continue reading “Baby Boom Birthday”
