weekends away!

So these last few weeks have been very hectic. The weekend after the great family gathering, Steph and I, together with a whole bunch of people, mostly from the Trust, stayed in an old cottage in the Brecons. We visited many spectacular waterfalls, loved the cottage immensely (even though the stairs were a nightmare - very tight spiral staircase of slippery slates, that you have to crawl on hands and knees to get up) and all agreed that it should be an annual thing!

Then last weekend, when Sarah and I were supposed to be going to visit Patty in Essex (who was ill), we actually ended up fossil hunting on the Jurassic Coast, and then going shopping in Bournemouth the next day, so we had lots of fun then too!

Now this weekend I'm off to the Goodwood Revival, though judging by the chill in the weather I don't think I'll be dressing up!
