Wet weather and Furzey Gardens


 Another eventful day! Yesterday Alison and I had managed to fit in a walk together dodging the rain following an early 5km run. Maria started her half term dance school and it runs through every day of the week from 9 to 3.30 apart from a shorter afternoon on Friday when the students put on a show for parents.

Having dropped Maria off this morning the plan was to join family at Furzey Gardens taking the motorhome which would be the venue for later in the day back at dance. However, the wet weather diminished our numbers and then the others were unable to come along due to a small object being put in an ear by one of our granddaughters resulting in several hours in A & E. Alison decided to go along still and we enjoyed a very wet walk round the grounds before having some sandwiches on the motorhome listening to Frank Skinner's poetry podcast. 

We then took a trip back down the A31 and parked up near the dance studio so I could have a run round the woods, a nice 4 mile jog, whilst Alison was knitting. The view from the window was autumnal and full of copper colours. 

Back aboard Amy we drove to dance and Alison cooked a meal for the girls who, having finished the day at 3.30 at the holiday club were still going to be dancing the regular 4.30 - 7.15 slot as well. What a long day it was for them.

I think I have been slightly overdoing all the exercise and allotmenting lately and that culminated in feeling so physically tired on Friday...
