We took Ellie for a long run over the fields. We then spent more time trying to decide what furniture to get for the garden. We gave our 6 outside dining chairs to Lou and Rhys and we also got rid of our large outside table. Pointless keeping any of them as we don’t have the big family get togethers any more. Even Tariq who said he would be coming over last week didn’t appear. Obviously far more interesting things to do. He has now gone back home.
We still eat outside a lot and needed a larger table than our two seater bistro set. So, we have ordered a really nice 4 seater aluminium set with table and cushions. We have two new relaxer chairs which arrived 2 weeks ago. We had been considering the wicker looking sets that everyone seems to have now but having tried a few, they don’t seem that comfortable, I’d rather sit on the relaxer. Decision made!
Part of my birthday present from Mal was an afternoon tea in the Lamp room at Betteshanger Park. In spite of it not being very far we have never been there. So, we went at lunch time and it was amazing, one of the best we have had and I don’t think we will be eating again today!
