London! We’re back! In an unexpected twist, we’ll manage two London visits in one trip. Nothing to complain about there. It’s officially the first day of Autumn too, but far from forecast rain, the skies […]
2019 Day 122 – Lesnes Abbey
Well they said it would rain and it does. A polite drizzle at first, all the way through to thunderingly fat drops and everything in between. Much of the UK is on severe storm warnings. […]
2019 Day 121 – Fixed, finally!
Right. Up early. I love that so much. I jest, of course. Early mornings are an anathema to me. Boo! Hiss! There’d better be coffee before my feet hit the floor! Luckily, there is, Himself […]
2019 Day 120 – Bourton-on-the-Water
We’re a day late, but we’re here! Having been charmed by Burford yesterday, Bourton-on-the-Water is a mere 12 miles away through one green corridor after the other. I suspect it would take weeks, possibly even […]

2019 Day 117 – Cirencester
This is indeed a lovely part of England. Seemingly untouched by the heatwaves scorching landscapes elsewhere, this remains a green oasis. Having learnt that the motorhome parts have arrived and booking the work for Monday, […]
2019 Day 116 – Dyrham Park
Any place that’s home to a herd of spotted fallow deer is going to right to the top of the list of places I want to see. Himself has found Dyrham Park amongst the National […]
2019 Day 115 – Another glorious day in Bath
Grey skies be gone. We rise to glorious blue – the sun is back!The sun has turned Bath into a new city – I can’t resist reshooting yesterday’s photo of the Abbey. It’s amazing the […]
2019 Day 114 – Bath
We’re visiting the gorgeous honey toned city of Bath, England’s first spa town, made popular in the 18th century when “taking the waters” was considered an important part of maintaining one’s health. We stopped here […]
