So we've collected our tickets and bought some pretty UK money. I'm feeling (aka spending!) like a tourist already and bought a very cute travel jewellery box.

One last tinkle on the ivories. Piano and Patchwork: two of my favourite things. I made that back pack for my first UK trip. Now the long wait to board. Hopefully we get some sleep.
Reisender Just a few snippets of nothing spectacular. But I did attempt to teach a 4yo Old MacDonald on the black keys. Can't take the teacher hat off easily!

First leg safely managed. We had 3 seats for the 2 of us so had some wriggle room and managed some snatches if sleep. Now waiting a couple of hours for the next flight.
Reisender Sounds good. Hope the rest of your flight is same with even more empty seats available

The last time we went to the UK we found it quite stressful to pick up a fancy hire car and drive off while feeling sleep deprived. So this time we decided to crash at the airport hotel and pick upWeiterlesen

A visit to Warwick Castle. I love the ancient building and the way they've made it come to life with wax characters. The grounds are beautiful. Lots of visitors as it is school holidays here. WeWeiterlesen

Such a peaceful place to recharge: why we wanted to come here. This is our chalet in a truly beautiful part of the country. The lane only fits one car at a time, and we've had to reverse a bit to letWeiterlesen

Our drive into Birmingham was made much less stressful by Jeremy's remote help desk advice. We connected my phone to the car's sat nav screen and used Google Maps instead. This lady has a MUCH betterWeiterlesen
Reisender What a lovely son - I wonder where he got his brains and caring nature from? I can see why you bought Hannah’s work. I know you will enjoy using your mug

On our way home from Birmingham we detoured to Henley-in-Arden. A delightful place. I just don't get tired of looking at those glorious old and wonky buildings.
I love churches and pipe organs, and IWeiterlesen
Reisender What a streetscape. A great photo of Ian he looks relaxed. See if you can get someone to take some pictures with you both together.

Today was about mooching through antique shops, although with a church in every place we visited a couple of them too. St Mary's in Warwick had scaffolding around its tower for renovation so didn'tWeiterlesen

There was a Legendary Joust at Kenilworth castle. It exceeded my expectations! We had a lovely time, with glorious weather. While we always enjoy Gumeracha Medieval fair, there's something differentWeiterlesen
Reisender Hope you have a really lovely time away xo
Reisender No doubt Ian will treat you to the equivalent of the crown jewels, so it's important to have a gorgeous travel jewellery box 😊 Have a wonderful time! xx
Have a lovely time. Will be thinking of you both XOXO [Ruth Bowden]
Reisender The money certainly is pretty
