We had an early morning walk through the woods and around the lake. It was very hazy. Quite atmospheric.
Breakfast next and there was a breakfast conference taking place and so another couple refused to eat in the restaurant and instead joined us with Ellie as it was quieter!
Mal and I both had the eggs royale, very nice.
We packed up and Mal went to pay the bill and told the receptionist of several mix ups we weren’t happy about and we got an “Oh dear, sorry” and that was it, not at all interested. A shame when the standards and staff used to be so good.
We took a slow drive home, through Rye and stopping for a walk along Walmer beach. The sun was out and it was really warm. We looked for a pub with a garden and ended up using one quite close to home, The Coach and Horses at Hacklinge. They allow dogs but also have a “secret garden”, so we ate lunch out there. What a difference, the landlady was so nice and couldn’t do enough for us, so we will be going there again.
In the evening Mal took Ellie to the field across the road and Hendrix was over there. He is a service dog and so when he isn’t working, he goes a bit bonkers. Mal had to put Ellie on the lead in the end because she was doing too much chasing around. I think she will be back to normal very soon. The fluid under the wound is going bit by bit.
