its been a while


First I must thank you so much for all the kind comments on my last post.
Father in Law doing very well and at home making a good recovery. It was a bit scary!

I think a bit of a catch up is needed.
At the end of August Hubby and I went to the Gold Cup at Oulten Park.
Lots of lovely old cars racing.
and lots turned out in their Sunday best.

Then on one sunny Sunday afternoon Hubby and I went for a walk locally and just happened to be near a pub at lunchtime!



Some people riding horses stopped by for a drink too.

and they are very dog friendly too!

I have been trying to sort out the garden.

Its a shame as we have some lovely flowers out but there's a chill in the air and I know one day soon the frosts will knock them all back. 




We have had some glorious weather since we have been back at school and my drive home has been lovely.

I had a lovely day out last Saturday and that's a whole new post!

  6. Your photos of your country side are spell binding. It is so beautiful and you do have a lovely drive to work, don't you? I approached my friend today with a reminder that we aren't getting any younger and that we must travel to England next spring. She had family obligations and my daughter had a baby, so we put our travel plans on hold this last spring. You photos inspire me start shopping around for cheap air fare. Our garden is pretty much done. You still have lovely flowers and your tomatoes look great. We haven't had a frost yet, and we still have a lot of green tomatoes. Have a good week.

  15. It's lovely to hear your good news, I hope he continues to improve rapidly.

    I used to watch motorcycle racing at Oulton Park, it was lovely to see part of it in your pictures.

    I have never seen a Poppy seed head so filigreed before, wonderful!

  17. I would love to see all the old racing cars. It took me a minute to realize that I was looking a the dog menu. Duh, a little dense here.

  18. Hi Lyn! Such gorgeous photos, really beautiful and sorry to hear your F.I.L has not been well. I hope he recovers ok. By the way, Sophie from Countrygirldoesnorfolk.blogspot.com is doing a scavenger hunt while we're not sure where Kathy has gone so if you wanted to check it out to join in the fun again (not sure if you read her blog at all so I thought I'd mention it!)

  19. Really glad to hear your FIL is on the mend, sounds very scary indeed. Yet more wonderful photos, I love the idea of stopping in the pub whilst out horse riding. Oddly, as I type my husband is looking at Skipton & Ilkley on Google Maps (streetview) with the boys - no idea why, they are hunting for their favourite toy shop (!!). I hope your FIL continues to get better. Bethxx
