A family meetup at Clumber Park 24th July

-
After several months of lock down and no chance to see Lizzie and family we agreed to meet up at Clumber Park. It's around 3 hours drive from Norwich and so we set off in my car on a Friday morning at about 8am to arrive at 11.00. The road was not too busy and we made good time although driving carefully we were achieving 70+ mpg. 
We arrived at almost exactly the right time about 10 minutes ahead of Lizzie and James and of course William.
Location: National Trust - Clumber Park, Worksop S80 3AZ, UK

We have particularly enjoyed the sunshine on the back of the house in the afternoon and the seamlees transition from lounge to patio. This reached new heights yesterday when I was able to sunbathe in the lounge! The...

 Friday 4th June. Overcast and a little cooler. 9 a.m Off for a pre-booked appointment to get 2 new rear tyres fitted. All done by 9.22. Good service! Aldi then home. Made tomato sauce and garlic mushrooms for tomorrow. Peter added some more to the irrigation system. New TV delivered by John Lewis. Peter was busy setting it up. Old TV collected 30 mins later, en route to Romania! Made sourdough for the pizzas. (Peter made the starter). My first encounter with sourdough (apart from eating it!). Rain started but we had a quick walk round the block. Home made spicy bean and tomato soup with sourdough. Watched the new TV!
