11th May photos more geocaching - sorry if this is getting boring - scrapping will resume shortly!

Despite it being a gorgeous day today we could only do one quick geocache today as Steven had to stay in all day glued to the telly for a big football match today - gawd I hate football. I did some more sorting out photos, but have run out of 6x4 sleeves and need a few 4x4 for old photos so I can feel another order to Arrow file coming on!

Anyway we trotted off to Haugmond Abbey (Haughmond Abbey Survives To Fight Another Day GC1A1Q6) this evening to find the cache there. The last 3 people have been unable to find it, but the owner checked yesterday and confirmed it was still there. I could not find it - but eagle eyed Steven did! he is much better at this lark than me. He was determined not to leave until he had found it. Excellent cache, when eventually found.
The Abbey was closed but we were able to get this nice photo of the ruins and also found this quaint little stone house in the woods - have no idea what is is for as they was no info next to it. But it clearly was very old.

Afterwards we went to for tea at Nandos - had lovely chicken, chips and coleslaw - very tasty. We dragged Liam along as he had not left his bedroom for 3 days, teenage boys are far too addicted to their computers these days. Though I am sure I would be worrying about him if he was off out & about and I did not know where he was! Anyway I bribed him with the promise of a meal out, he was very miffed that we had to geocache first - I had neglected to tell him that bit until we were in the car - so he sat and sulked and would not help us look at all - but did cheer up after he had been fed.
