Day Fourteen

A quiet day in prospect. I booked train tickets to and from Gainsborough and spent the rest of the morning reading, bringing the blog up to date and searching for chickens' feet recipes on the net!! Early afternoon we all went over to the place that will host Helen's wedding reception, Norwood Hall. This is an old house set in a tree covered park which in spring (it is an April wedding) will look terrific. Back home then for a quiet afternoon reading and chatting. It started to get very cold as we went down to "The Sheperd's Rest" for dinner. I had fish and chips for the first time on this trip followed by steamed treacle pudding and custard. Thank you Kathleen. It was even colder as we left the pub and settled down to a couple of games of Scrabble, Anne emerging as champion on the night. We saw the evening out with a couple of glasses of the amber liquid..........need I say more?
