Well, dear reader, what a busy week the male guardian and I have had. The log shed is satisfyingly full, a section of the Orchard has been re-seeded, cakes baked, visits to the delightful city of Bath undertaken as well as smaller towns nearer home, select items purchased for the house, deliveries delivered, tests undertaken, workmen seen and plans made. My dears, it has been quite the most productive of times. The woollen garment currently on my needles grows daily inbetween activities, favourite books revisited, fresh brewed coffee partaken and even lunch a' deux partaken in the City of Bath; why I do believe one needs a quiet weekend to recover before our usual routines are restored. It has to be said, we have been most fortunate with the weather. Sitting outside a most pleasing establishment in Bath, one had the opportunity to watch the world go by, glory in the most delightful architecture and enjoy the glorious sunshine. Dear souls, whilst one enjoys these trips to the City enormously, one really does like to come home; we travelled through a most delightful amount of beautiful countryside in our travels but none more welcome, in the resonant voice of that well known Welshman, than "the green, green grass of home". We are, it has to be said, home birds and enjoy nothing more than time spent on our little estate, which amidst our busy schedule, we have also taken the opportunity to do.
A calm weekend is planned and no doubt some time will be spent pottering about the estate. A most enticing iced ginger sponge is tantalisingly stored in the larder, along with fresh coffee and some fine English tea to be brewed - such largesse, my dears. I have no doubt, English weather allowing, some leisure time will also be had enjoying the garden and partaking of a little light refreshment. We do so hope that you too have such delights awaiting you.
