All Behind, Upside Down and Wherever

That is just how I feel about my blog.  I am so behind with updating everyone with what is going on in my little part of the world that my poor blog is getting neglected.  Remember how I went away the other week to Shropshire?  Well not posted any pictures or anything and it was so nice to go there.

Here are some photos of the week away with the girls - on the way down I saw Elvis!


Sign at a pub when stopped at traffic lights

The following are photographs of Stockbatch Granary which is on Pitchford Estate where we were staying.  It was HUGE!  Actually accommodates 14 people but as we ladies wanted an en suite each we had to plum for something large.  Worked great!  Big table to craft on and no clearing up to eat either.

Right outside my window


This was a Shepherds Hut which has been done up and refurbished (you can sleep inside) that could be seen from the side window in my bedroom.


A close up of two of the MANY lambs that were in the field.  One day I opened the window and spoke to a sheep that I thought was lying in a funny position (wanted to make sure it was alive, you know) and the whole lot came running up - they thought I was going to feed them.  They just came quicker when I waved my arms shouting "go back, I have no food",  The lambs were so funny to watch, lolloping about and jumping like lambs do, sometimes over one another's backs.  Here are the sheep on the last day (see the weather changed) following the farmer with the feed trickling through the sack on his shoulder.


I'll upload some more photos tomorrow of what we made but for now you probably have far too many photos to look at in one go.
