The problem with going on holiday is what you come back to! Mounds of washing and ironing and also all the cleaning up following rellies staying here and they left the same time as us.
Mal and I went shopping as well to get all the fresh fruit and vegetables. Cherries are still in the shops 11tl a kilo in Starling but I see (from the newspaper) they are selling them at the Wednesday market for 7tl. It sounded from the article that the fruit and vegetable sellers at the market are not doing at all well. Perhaps if they priced things instead of one price for locals and one price for “us”, they would get more customers.
I heard from Rhys and I had to laugh as he has an order for his embroidery on 500 hats for the Fairport Cropredy Convention coming up shortly see link . He remembers the days when I used to take him to listen to Fairport and I have all their “L.P.s”. He said the website looked like a load of ageing hippies, well, they have been going for 40 years and I guess he would never have dreamt seeing them perform as a child, one day he would be doing hats for one of their conventions!
A shame Mal and I are not in the Uk or we may have joined them.
The picture is not very good as he sent it on his phone.
