I look forward to seeing more of your art FS and Sandy
Thanks too to Jwil and Lucielle
DS made a huge effort. Clean and tidy shared flat. Steak and home made Parmentier potatoes, scrumptious.
We went to see a huge stone circle and also viewed a horse of chalk in the hill from a distance. Had coffee, cake and ice-cream there.
He drove and it made it so much easier. He really enjoyed driving my car. We went to a good gastro pub tonight.
I am now recovering at a pretty B&B with views over a canal.
