Meet woodlands Benromach (aka George), and typically of the breed he bounced into the house as if he owned it. Finlay and Maddie gave given him a few sniffs before they ignored him and Meg has been rather bemused, as hasJoan, who would have raised her eyebrows if she had any to raise.
Got to Sheffield yesterday and we had a memorial drink in All bar one, after looking at the city Christmas lights. It was interesting to see that instead of the Islamic "Happy Eid" under the Merry Christmas banner near the City Hall, we have now "Happy Chanukah" Hanukkah is the Jewish festival of lights, and is from what I remember a "roving" celebration that occurs from November to December. I wonder why the change? hummmmm?
Met up with Mike and Bev and friends Tom ( an affable A&E doctor) and Jackie ( earth mother and GP), and caught up with the gossip whist eating tons of pizza. It was a lovely night. Maisie is a heaven sent child as she went to bed at 6.30 and didn't stir until 9 am this morning.
Came home from Alfreton via Chatsworth House which is one of our favourite places, but was glad to get home after nearly 5 hours of driving
Lovely to see Chatsworth house feature as Mr Darcey's country home in Pride & Prejudice (2005), as it has never looked lovelier as when photographed by

What a darling puppy. Aww, I miss having a dog at home.
ReplyDeleteThe lights are beautiful.
