All Aboard the train

Most summers we take the train from Holt to Sheringham, have a picnic lunch there and then take the train back again. This year was no exception. It was a good day and the weather was kind.

Thanks to the Age Concern bus and Adrian the driver, the North Norfolk Railway, Sophie and Lin in the kitchen for making the picnic and of course to all the staff and friends who came and helped.

Barbecue

We held a barbecue to celebrate the Queen's 90th Birthday. Banjoman entertained brilliantly as ever. After the last week of cold winds it was warm enough to have all the doors open and enjoy the fresh air although the sun only managed to get through just as we were packing up. The garden now has a fetching blue hand-rail around it.

Donna had found some Royal masks which made you look twice.

Thanks to everyone that helped, Gaynor's Pete for doing the cooking and everyone who came and joined us.
