Family Bike Ride

During the hot weather, we have been spending some time exploring local woodland cycling tracks.  No better place to be on a hot day than in the middle of the woods.

Birthday Pizza

Casting aside the tradition birthday cake, our lovely neighbours brought homemade pizza for Mab's birthday!  Much tastier, and complete with candle.  Happy birthday Mab!

Lockdown passtimes

Since lockdown we have done many walks, baked like made and spend hours in the garden.  Here are some of our highlights

Easter in Lockdown

These are unusual times, since 23 March we have been confined to our homes and gardens, only allowed out for essential food supplies, essential work and daily exercise.  We are in the midst of a global pandemic and the world has changed, at least for a while.  There are no aeroplanes in the sky, the roads are empty and all seems to be at peace.  Inside hospitals it is a different story as medical professionals work tirelessly to care for patients suffering with COVID-19.

Meanwhile, James and Jenny are home from school, I am working from home and Mark is managing to do his job without cups of tea and cake with his farmer clients.  We can't see our friends, but our sweet friends and neighbours have made some special deliveries of sweet treats and homemade goodies.  

Les Houches 2020

We return to Les Houches for another year of skiing.

Surfers' Paradise 2019

We return to Croyde for another weekend of surfing in the bracing November weather.  This time with a little coasteering added into the mix for those fit enough to partake!

OK, so this isn't really us, but we were there!

Getting kitted up and ready to go
