Lovely and sunny here, after a day of torrential rain, the garden is looking a bit bedraggled, my inadequate staking has been exposed.
Used to camp a lot in the mountains. One night in the Cairngorms, the tent was leaking and I decided to investigate. Went outside and was terrified to see a ghostly apparition through the mist. Next night in the pub I mentioned this rather sheepishly to some locals, who laughed, telling me that I had seen the albino Reindeer.
Have a lovely day.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
I don't do tents or caravans either. OH always camped with his first wife (who died) and my first husband (died) and I used to rent gites or villas, which worked well with 4 children and is quite cheap in France. But now I like B & Bs. Usually cheaper than hotels, the people who run them I have found to be friendly and welcoming. The rooms are usually comfortable with nice little touches, like flowers and perhaps a chocolate (wrapped!) on the pillow. The best ones are usually run by male gay couples who really seem to have a knack for it. The one we went to in Suffolk in the Dedham Vale was just gorgeous http://www.poplarsfarmhouse.com/ - I hope that doesn't count as advertising.
I was hoping to get out and do a blitz on the veg garden which has shoulder high weeds (last did it early July), but it's raining again.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Good morning
I don't do tents or caravans
Wonky I hope you feel okay today.
No plans for today other than some laundry.
Have a good day everyone
Little cottage I wouldn't mind, but sorry soggy tents in English weather,
I'd rather stay at home. But we're all different, whatever floats your boat.
Morning all.

Morning all.
I don't mind caravans provided:
A: I never have to sleep in one.
and B: they don't come anywhere near Devon or Cornwall.
I don't ask for much, but I do insist on a duck down duvet and an en suite power shower.
Sunnyish morning here. Might even get "warm" later.
Have a nice weekend one and all.
