I have to say I was very surprised that no one welcomed the Lionesses back home! What on earth has happened to this country?? As it was neither William or the so called KING Charles went to the final match……the Queen of Spain was there. All you hear about on the news is about that evil nurse.

Our walk took a very long time as everyone wanted to talk and make a fuss of Ellie. Five people offered her treats which I declined and thank goodness she didn’t see the man pushing his trolley around emptying the bins as they have a supply of bonios!

We have decided as we will be spending Christmas on our own we are having ours a couple of days early and going to the Lost Estate. I signed up quite a while back and then was offered “priority booking”. It started midday today, so we now have our tickets booked just before Christmas.  We just need to find the Victorian clothes and also book a hotel. Exciting. I have also messaged Lea to see if he can have Ellie for the night.

Mal went off to his art class and I spent the rest of the morning freezing french beans, runner beans and picking tomatoes. I even took some runner beans to work for Jack and we still have so many keep coming. I love them.
