Wednesday 1.



I know I've shown photoes of this scene before -last winter with snow on it, but it's worth seeing in different seasons. The Deanery Tower (to the left) was built in 1495, and the Deanery (to the right of the Tower) was finally added in 1832. St. Mary's, to the right is mainly of 14th century date with an earlier tower. We went to early service there at 7.30 a.m., followed by a quick breakfast, and took the above picture when leaving. Went and had coffee with friends who are 'downsizing' and needed advice on redundant antique stuff, mostly quite nice (which is a pleasant change - often have to tell people that their swans are geese- but not this morning). Advised them on best auctioneer to use. Spent rest of day pottering in workshop. Went well. Just had dinner - sausage casserole followed by apple and blueberry pie with custard. Played a game of scrabble. Got to tidy up in workshop, then bed I think. Been a long day. Goodnight All.

I bet the blue berries aren't from here! The crop is terrible this year. It was too cold at the beginning of the summer. It's also meant that the bees here haven't been able to make much honey as they take their nectar from the blue berry flowers.
