Your photos and descriptions were, as always, wonderful to see and read. I was part of a conversation today in which we were saying how much we enjoyed now that we are old, being reminded of the places of our youth where those places have remained reasonably the same and the memories were happy. That's what I get out of your posts.Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564665415681304577.post-10011711583972064162021-07-23T21:25:29.333+01:002021-07-23T21:25:29.333+01:00Earlier or later in the day seems to be best.

The boys used to love messing about in Windermere with their Dad and I got a quiet couple of hours reading, pausing only to dole out sandwiches and pour drinks.Sue https://www.blogger.com/profile/04947919568474743963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564665415681304577.post-14924364948307337122021-07-23T12:25:54.935+01:002021-07-23T12:25:54.935+01:00I think you've done this first week of the hol...I think you've done this first week of the holidays really well. x<br />Mrs Tiggywinklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18262841220840086776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564665415681304577.post-25195154903952292682021-07-23T12:13:46.629+01:002021-07-23T12:13:46.629+01:00Oooh, I could have done with that big paddling poo...Oooh, I could have done with that big paddling pool and inflatable doughnut yesterday!
