Holiday Randoms - New Romney - September 2022






















 Back in September 2022, Mum and I had a few days in a caravan down in Kent.  Sheila and Alan also booked the same days in another caravan in Kent, a few miles down the road!   We had a lovely few days, sometimes spending the day with Sheila and Alan, and sometimes doing things on our own for the day and meeting for catch ups in the evenings.   It was fab.  We laughed so much, but we also shed a few tears - the Queen died while we were there!   We walked loads, we ate and drank and enjoyed the sea air and the fabulous company.   

So privileged to have times like these.

Peddars Way










 On a beautifully warm and sunny day in September 2022, Domino and I continued our trek along the Peddars Way.   Because the parking opportunities are few and far between on the route from Wretham towards Thompson Water, we walked a there and back this time.  I'm still not sure I can trust Domino on public transport!

Seeds and Stuff - September 2022


 

The only photo I seem to have for September 2022 is this one of me posing in front of Auntie June's Hebe which is clearly much taller than I am.  This was originally a small cutting from the original which was cut on the day of Auntie June's funeral and given to all those of us who were horticulturally minded!   Mine has done so well that it's enormous and it's now my turn to take cuttings and pass on to others.

Hen Do



 




I had a lovely surprise invite to my friend Claire's hen do back in August 2022 - when Norwich was hosting the dinosaur art trail, hence some of the odd photos!








It was a very action packed day, starting off with axe throwing and crazy indoor golf!   Followed by dinner.  And then ending up - for me anyway, most everyone else went clubbing afterwards! - in the Tipsy Jar where we made our own cocktails - recipes above!



A really fabulous day and lovely to try things I've not done before and to spend some time with Claire and some of the girls I hadn't seen in ages.
