Aj and I have just returned from holiday - 5 days in Combe Martin, a delightful little town in North Devon, staying at John Fowlers caravan site on the hill opposite Newberry Beach.
The climb up the hill to the caravan kept us fit, the view across the bay from the bar was wonderful (better than the entertainment , but there were only 11 of us there)
We went on to Richmond to babysit for P&N's baby Annie over the weekend.
The brilliant wather brought most of the inhabitants out to walk, sit or eat in the restaurants along the river - amazing!
We walked from Richmond to a friends in Chiswick on Sat - 5 miles along the river and through Chiswick, then another couple of miles to check out the shops and find a bus back.
Aj survived, just!
We had a great night with B, E, etc last night before coming home, having pottered around Bicester and Solihull en route.
The decorator has finished the back half of the house whilst we were away, which looks great - Wm Morris in the kitchen, green scullery and cream porch and laundry.
JA has mown the lawns - they are absolutely appalling - inches of grass lying everywhere - on the lawns, borders and yard!!!!!!
I have the floors to steam clean, shelves to wash and furniture to polish before washing and putting things back.
I'll worry about the garden later - I do have an avid gardener coming on Thursday and friends for dinner - could be better timed.
Putting a contract out on JA wouldn't really help in the long run..
An early night would have been a good idea as I have a lot to get done and the Christian Aid envelopes to collect (ssshhhhh - late)
