End of the Summer and Back to school.


 We spent a few days at Hopton in a caravan.

 Not quiet the same as Cornwall but Dex and I still went for our pre breakfast walk along the beach.

 While there ( the weather was mostly great) as well as a trip on the rainy day to the cinema, we went to Pleasurewood hills for the day.

 Dan was the only one brave enough to go on this ride ( along with one of Derek's friends)
 It was quite hot so we sat under some trees to rest for a bit.

 Nats.
 Derek and I finally got to Duxford after years of saying we would. 

 inside concord.

 The obligatory ice-cream.


 One of our ex supply teachers volunteers here and they both spent Ages talking about the planes. Derek really loved it - i knew he would.

 We went to Warwick castle ( i went with the school) We took Dan and met up with the family that Dex and Dan go to rugby with . It was a surprise for Dan that they were there and he was over the Moon!

 Dan and Tony

It was quite hot again.

I said goodbye to my Citron this Summer and got a newer car .
Already back at work.

Back soon

Growing things

 I turned our old coal bunker into a rockery - looks much prettier.

Second year at growing tomatoes and this year has been much better - these are a very tiny amount from the four plants in the garden- we still have loads on the turn- need to make something with them now.

back soon

Wow - its been a while

Almost a year since I last posted! I am on my Summer break again and as always, theres loads to do. We have a few days away this year , just a caravan in Hopton. Already booked for two weeks in Cornwall next year though.
It was a busy month finishing the term at school. I was able to go in a couple of trips:
 I went to Warwick Castle with the yr7's on a history trip. It was great fun but went so fast. I have booked to go again next month with Derek and Dan as they will love it.



I also went to Alton Towers on the yr 10 rewards trip. deb and I sat under a tree and read for most of the day!!

Then there was another yr 10 trip to GoGo hares in Norwich
 And of course Yr 11 Prom
always sad to see students leaving.
Thankfully no photos of the end of term drinks .
Derek and I forgot to take pics of The Strumpshaw Tree Fair , which is a shame as both my sisters were there too.
We went to see an ex pupil at the Theater Royal in Norwich for a performance of Grease.
 Tom was brilliant and I am SO proud of him . It was lovely to catch up after a couple of years.

 The following evening, we went to Sennowe Park in Norwich and even though it had rained all the day, it stayed nice a dry- if a little cold. We saw a showing of The Greatest Showman.
Read this during my first few days off. Set in Cornwall ( Praa Sands even got a mention)

 Been Watching Unforgotten - brill.

Still making my jewellery ( on other blog) . Recently made a few ankle bracelets and festival/rainbow things for family and friends too. 
Back with holiday photos soon.
