A great deal has happened since I last blogged.
On Tuesday we set off for France. We stayed in Ashford in Kent for 2 nights so we could see Lynn and Peter.
It was lovely to see them. We weren't with them very long but I think we talked all the time we were together. We had a meal in a café that did gluten free food then had a good look round
I managed to take some photos for the challenge while we were there.

This is a skirt I bought last year and have never worn - not sure if I ever will.
Wednesday we travelled under the Channel - something we had never done before.
We drove through France to Orleans and stayed in an Ibis overnight
We thought the roads were very quiet and later discovered it was a French Bank holiday.
We travelled down to Shaun and Fionas on Friday, the roads were still quiet but there were one or two lorries around.
Yesterday ( and today)Roland helped Shaun out and I pruned a Rambling Rose.
I love the pictures Viv. Laura Ashley items are always so pretty but quite expensive in the States. Won't find anything like that here. I too used to always wear bras and panties that were fancy and matched. Now u wear whatever is most comfortable. LOL! I hope you enjoyed your trip. How nice you were able to visit With Lynne and Peter.
