Seems a while since Iast posted, although I see Thursday’s post generated a relatively large number of comments!
It was a busy weekend – we went down to Cornwall for a family wedding (on Felicity’s side of the family). The wedding itself was held in the tiny village of St Winnow, near Lostwithiel, and by coincidence very near my Uncle, ho lives in the next major village down at Lerryn.
The weather on the Friday for the drive down and the Saturday for the wedding was excellent – really hot, and the reception and wedding breakfast were in a marquee with views down over the upper reaches of the River Fowey. We had a good day, and drove back on Sunday to get back in the early evening.
I was going to post something yesterday, but by the time the photographs had been sorted, processed and posted on the family web site, and the washing and ironing done… well you know how it is! However the weekend confirmed that although my taste for champagne has returned, it was a bit of a shock to find myself out of breath after only 5 minutes on the bouncy castle…
I have suffered a little bit with the skin – my own fault as I didn’t take all the creams etc (so many decisions, do you put the steroids on before the moisturiser and the sun block, or should the sun block go on first…) but I did keep out of the sun as much as possible and when I couldn’t avoid it I used plenty of factor 25. Things have improved since I got back with loads of the Diprobase and Dermovate!
Changing the subject, I have just discovered a load of old AOL CD’s, so I must go and string them up over the beans and the soft fruit. The birds may have had all the cherries off the cherry tree, but they won’t get (any more of) the blackcurrants!
