True! Made it up to the church this afternoon - about 5km round trip.
Quite an attractive building - with Tudor manor next door to it!

Well, it’s Monday… 🤣🤣
Thankfully my cooking marathon yesterday set us up for the week. So just taken the pizza dough out the fridge and have had at it. Got fancy and done a stuffed crust one 🧐

Yeah. I much prefer a bit of open space!
These were the view from out the window at the place on a farm we used to rent. Will always regret that we didn’t quite have the money (or time) to buy it and do it up as the location was perfect

Very strange so far. Usually first job of the morning is get Zip out into the garden for his ablutions, then protect the cat bowls from “scavenging”!
House certainly feels empty today! Thankfully got lots of photos/memories to go through. A year ago we were at Chatsworth House apparently..

Morning lads. Bad news I’m afraid. Poor old Zip went to sleep about an hour ago. When the vet had a look it was another big tumour under his foreleg. He agreed with us it was time to give the lad a rest. He was a good boy. 🐶❤️

Seems to be on the mend now he’s getting the antibiotics in him.
Nearly missed his 14th birthday on Monday! Celebrated with a roast lamb dinner. And a sausage roll! 🤣
