a bit of catching up

I have had a few busy days so need to catch up now.
Took my mother out for lunch the other day to Haughmond Hill. She did not know there was a little cafe there and she did enjoy this new discovery. We took a stroll along the yellow route - the easy one. She is quite mobile if she takes it at her own pace. She so enjoyed this little trip out that that she thinks that she might bring back some of the other ladies at her apartments for the stroll and lunch.

These are the veiws from her apartment - complete with pheasant in the gardens.

We went Geocaching the other evening - but I forgot my camera! We found 'A Mere Surprise' (GC1AKJ9). A lovely stroll around the mere and excellent hidden caches - our first nano ones - very ingenious! We did not find Shrawardine Castle (GC16Z7Q) though . I think this one may have been taken as we found the 2 flat stones - as given in the clue and a hole in the ground next to them where it looked like the cache should have been hidden - it was a shame as it had only recently been found and there was a travel bug in it that wanted to go to Lowestoft - so ideal for our trip to Norwich.

Liam's GCSE's seem to be going well - despite his lack of revision!
