Well I need not say
anything about the weather we have been having here in the UK this summer. Its difficult to know whether to put your
flip flops or your willies on when you head out of the door and some day it does
feel like we are having four seasons in one day.
We have been trying to
make the most of any dry weather we have to get out and get some fresh air and
we have even managed a BBQ on the beach (complete with Pimms!)
Last weekend was a very
mixed bag of blue sky and moody looking grey clouds, but as we had friends
visiting we refused to stay stuck in the house and headed to a WW re-enactment
weekend that was happening in a village not far from home. The rain stayed away and there were some
lovely vintage stalls selling beautiful clothing, home ware and even some
rather scrummy cake!
I am so thankful for my washing machine as I would be doing it day and night the old fashioned way!
The sun even came out and I was able to get catch up with an old friend I've not seen so much of recently..... my shadow!
and when the weather did close in on us and we had to head home we cheered ourselves up with a cream tea!
A beach BBQ sounds wonderful!! We have only managed one so far this year, it's been dismal.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to go to one of those WWII events, we had a vintage thing in the dockyards on jubilee weekend and I went complete with victory rolls but few people had dressed up.
I could just eat that cream tea!!

Beach BBQ sound better than they really are.... at least with 2 toddlers. We ended up with more sand than food being eaten.
DeleteI would love to do victory rolls, will have to have a go fro next time.
