Last Day and a Quick Week

We swung on extra day at Deepdale Hall. Chris took us to look at his converted Barn. Beautifully executed in the modern open plan style. The bedrooms and bathroom are down stairs and the lounge/diner upstairs.

H said goodbye the two old dogs that were always ready to petted and scratched whenever we would leave or return to the house. The drive home was uneventful. We came back via the A66 and turned south at the A1. A bit over five hours for the trip.


My brother pitched up on Sunday lunchtime to drop off his girls for the week. Miss L was still on the road from Cornwall. There was lots of squealing when Miss L finally pitched up. My second week off was a mix of allotmenting and chauffeuring the girls to various towns for shopping expeditions. H took them to Twycross Zoo one day and it was declared it was the best one they had ever been too. High praise indeed. The girls all got on well and were no trouble. It was a big day on Thursday as Miss L got her GSE results. She did really well and got what she needed to get into college. More squealing. We had a little celebration for her. She worked hard for it.
