    What a beautiful tree!
    I totally understand being happy as a clerk and not wanting the higher position.
    Have a lovely Sunday  :)

    We had a nice time yesterday, went to a NT place (photo from there) and then toured around that area.  We've used half of the value of our NT membership in the first month!

    This morning we've seen relatives so that was nice.  Passed on a few items to them as well, so that's good.

    Just going to relax this afternoon.  Hopefully the weather will improve tomorrow.  It's just drizzly here today, not heavy, but enough to make you quite wet.

    I hope you have a sunnier day tomorrow. It’s still overcast here, but muggy and no rain. 
    It’s lovely when you can clearly see the benefit of your national trust membership ☀️ I’m glad I checked back as my iPad has put ‘national trus’..imagine 🤭
