A Welcome Surprise

I missed posting last week as I was spirited away on a surprise holiday by Himself. It was wonderful to have some time away at last, after all the ill health of the last couple of years, preventing either of us from being well enough at the same time to go away.

In allotment news, the harvesting has begun.


It's great to finally be reaping the rewards after all the hard work of digging and preparing the soil. 
There's still lots more to come, I think I may have planted a few too many potatoes for the two of us, but I'm sure I'll be able to make all sorts of interesting things with them.

Just a quick post today to catch up with myself. 
Hope you've all had a great week.

We were so lucky with the weather and this was the sunset we were greeted with on arrival to site.


The showers were spotlessly clean, although the disabled one didn't have any handrails or a seat, so I ended out using the normal showers so I was able to lean on the walls to wash my feet.  

The grounds were spotless and well maintained and all the pitches
