Holiday 2012 - Day 12

We woke to a nice sunny morning but by the time we got up Jane and Glynn had left for work. We did a bit of washing before packing small bags as we are to stay with Louise and Andrew for a few days.

This was a birthday treat for Di from Louise and Andrew.

This is where the girls will be going tomorrow, not sure what the boys will be doing but I expect it will be just as much fun.

We left Jane's about 13.00 and had a lovely drive down to Louise's using a combination of road maps and details sent by Andrew as I haven't quite got the hang of the SatNav yet.

The top of the drive, approaching from Ombersley Road.

Westwood House in the background.

Turn left into the first drive .......

.......and here we are.

Its was lovely to be back at Orchard House.

Being spoilt and pampered as usual, but someone has to do the suffering !!

The trees are a little bare but in a few weeks they will be bursting forth.

Rape crops everywhere.

Just a sprinkling of blossom on the fruit trees and a good crop of mushrooms.

Andrews carved eagle to frighten off the birds from the fruit trees.  Andrew has done a lot of cutting back and hedging which has opened up the views wonderfully.

Andrew introduced Di to the wonders of the iPad which I think is going to cost me !
