Summer came in May!

Well, we've had some amazing weather so far this year. Long may it continue! This weekend has been wall to wall blue skies and nearly 80 degrees. We did a walk of about 10 miles locally today. It was very warm but the scenery just glorious - we live in such a lovely part of the world.

From Tenbury Summer in May!

To enable us to get away walking more often, we've decided to buy a new VW van and convert it to a camper. Hotels and other costs like food etc are quite expensive when you do it nearly every weekend and we'd rather spend that money on something else. Anyway, we're just deciding on the spec etc. so maybe we can get one converted before the end of the summer.

It's been too hot to use it this weekend but I bought a new bike! I had to put a very uncool saddle on it - I am old and need comfort, or I wont get on it very often!
It's now busy busy busy for 10 days before we take an 8 day break in Switzerland. It'll be my 50th birthday whilst we are there, so that will be nice. Simon's sister and husband are coming with us and her birthday is the day before mine, so we have every right to spoil ourselves!
