A beautiful morning to walk- dry, sunny and the cold less of a problem.
The passage of time in Wellington and elsewhere




Yesterday.
A beautiful morning to walk- dry, sunny and the cold less of a problem.
As previously noted the family home has been sold. The settlement is due soon.
The last day is done for us, spent cleaning by someone and packing the car and stuff by someone else.






So just about 20 years to the day.
The view still looks good.

A little more exercise of late. I have done three runs in the last week with three swims in between. The latter because the feet , legs and hips cannot cope with too much these days.
Back on the horse.

EQ and I went back on a train trip. We saw the tapestry and enjoyed an orgaised tour of Omaha beach landing. Very well done and informative.

A couple of weeks ago now- late again. But EQ’s first visit to the world renowned capital, with a contribution from mum.



Friday evening was one of those classic(cheesy?) boat trips on the Seine. But good fun and added entertainment of disagreements amongst the staff!

We parked up by the lake again and this time walked to L’abbaye de bon repos and back. The terrain was no easier overall. A energetic 12Km.




A scorching day – 32C and time to try out the locale after spending so much time doing jobs.
Only just over 5km but a lot of effort in the heat. Lunch at Beau Rivage.
I recently went to say hello.
As ever it was a bit sad. Not because of M&D but because of the unattended graves – people who were interred at the same time as my dad. The child of three months and the woman in her 50s who have never had a permanent headstone. Sad.


The lad came to stay for nearly a week. He was lovely company, a good worker painting the kitchen and we managed a day out to the Pink Granite Coast.
I have to admit my memory failed a bit and we went to the wrong place first. In the end we managed to find Trégastal. The weather was not quite scorching but did improve. Nice desert.
