Oddly that was the only day tiredness really hit, so I wasn't as "light bright and sparkling" as I would have liked; but the trip overall only energized me. I feed off them all the rest of the year round.

Good of him to take you to so many places and drive you back to London. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to try out Emily's Walking Book Club on Doves. Despite the weather it was a lovley day with friends. I feel quite exhausted by the amount of travelling you did on this trip. Well done!

That's pretty dreamy too.Diana Birchallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18291540900938654707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2716833846895246215.post-80655015036803984382015-11-17T01:39:38.662-08:002015-11-17T01:39:38.662-08:00Wow, you certainly pack a lot into your trips!

Naturally, as a good Girlsowner, you looked over the road to the very house where Jane Shaw's Susan and the Carmichaels lived? It's my dream home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
