Monday, 3rd June 2024 - The Marquee gets Dismantled

Tim and I wandered into the village to get croissant for breakfast. It's Monday all the village shops are shut. We popped into Steve and Zoe's just in time to help with the taking down of the marquee. I was rewarded with coffee and croissant.

Tom joined us and we ventured out to two hypermarkets for delights to take home. Noyes had been recommended for a visit. We stopped and had lunch by the river and roamed the village. It was sooo pretty with load of wonky buildings, old castle walls and the scent of roses. Almost disneyesque but better.

Briefly back to the chalet before back to Steve and Zoe's for a BBQ in the sun with friends and family watching the swifts and bats. I just adore Steve's mum and her twin sister. They have such interesting life stories to tell. We chatted about the war and Morrisons shelters and being evacuated to Wales. Just amazing. 

Today's postcard is of Tim, Zoe, Lizzie, Fergus and Steve manhandling the marquee cover back into its bag. I will be sad to leave.
