In the morning we went to Carr Taylor vineyard as it was only about 3 miles from where we were staying. You are allowed to take dogs there and you just pay £1.50 for a leaflet and do your own walking tour. We were chatting to Dave who does the guided tours and he told us to go and have a wander and he was waiting for a coach and he said he didn’t mind whether there were 40 or 42 people and suggested we join the coach party tour when it arrived and be part of the guided tour. How nice of him.   So, we had a long walk around the vineyard and when the coach arrived, joined in with them. It was a very interesting tour with a tasting at the end. One fact I did learn is that they use 1 kilo of grapes for a bottle of wine. Somehow I thought it would have taken more than that.

 From there we drove to The Three Oaks pub and had lunch in the garden. Lucky Ellie, the landlady brought her out a biscuit and a bowl of water and we had a really nice lunch too (two courses for £7.50!)

From here we drove to Battle and did a 5 mile walk which when we were half way round, we decided was a little stupid as it was so hot and humid!! We finished off in Battle Abbey where we have been many times before.

As English Heritage members we have free entry and only have to pay £1 for the car park instead of £4.50.

A bit of news that Rhys messaged us with. Mal was Head of Business at this school, they have a new head of school this year! They had to call the Police today!!

Ellie slept the entire evening, I think we wore her out.
