Bank Holiday Monday

We headed for Avoncroft, to see a bit of re-enactment to do with the Wars of the Roses, and for a look around...


Bubs in the Mission Hall... they use it for CofE services from time to time now...

Bubs and Grama in the windmill... Spike refused to go up! But I managed to get a sneaky of picture of him whilst we waited for the others to come down...

The soldiers drilling... it was fun to watch, and a little scary too when they came charging toward us! The place is so much more fun to walk around when there are folk in period costumes wandering around - it makes it come to life more...

... tut tut... naughty girl!

They always have most fun in the telephone kiosks, phoning each other up!

A fun ride on a wee train... this wasn't open last time we went, so a nice treat...

... some beautiful blossom... no idea what it is, but it was all over the place and the bees were really enjoying it!

Valentines Day

I'm not really 'into' Valentine's Day... I feel it's over-commercialised and I'm never really sure what it's meant to be celebrating! Anyway, Bubbles really wanted to do something for today... so this is what we did...


... table set for Breakfast, cleared of the usual 'stuff' that builds up on there... complete with gifts...

... a 'card' for all...

... a little banner to cheer the lounge... I also crocheted some hearts, which I hung on the 'tree' in the lounge and put on the table...

... time playing with their gifts...

... spending the afternoon making love cookies to share...

And we talked about Love... what is it? 1 Corinthians 13 ...and tried to show Love to each other during the day.
