Well It Looks As If I Have More Photos To Share ... And Then I Shall Disappear For A Few Days
Yes - as promised, photos to share.
But then I shall be "off-line" till the end of the week. I have another busy week ahead (including next Saturday). I do have Tuesday off, but am off to Heather's funeral ... and then the wake, and then we have the will reading. I had originally planned to just go to the funeral, but with the will reading on the same day at least it will get things sorted out.
However lets get to the positive .... My trip to Tyntesfield. As I said I went to Church, then off to the property, and then met up with Brenda, who had done the same. We had a great day ... it's an amazing property with some beautiful wood work. And, the gardens are well worth a visit

It was an amazing visit ... a location we had both been to before, but worth another visit.
Right, I have ironing to do, and need to give Auntie Mary a ring, so I will do about a week of questions as I doubt I will be back before then ...
1 - Second Half of the Year Day: How would you rate the first half of this year? Are there things you could change going forward to make the second half of the year better?
I have enjoyed the last 6 months ... work and holiday ... so let's have more of the same, please.
2 - I Forgot Day: Are you forgetful? Do you have trouble remembering holidays, anniversaries, birthdays, doctors' appointments, etc.? Do you have any tricks or aids to help you remember important dates?
I think the only thing I forget is that of dental appointments ... but maybe that's a subconscious choice!!!
3 - International Plastic Bag Free Day: Some localities are banning the use of plastic bags or charging a small amount for each one used. Is this an initiative where you live? Have you taken steps to reduce or eliminate the number of plastic bags that you use? Is there something for which you use plastic bags that you can't think of anything else that you could use for that purpose?
I very rarely use a palstic bag, although have a few that have been used & used again
4 - Alice in Wonderland Day: Have you read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and/or Through the Looking Glass? What about the various film adaptations -- have you seen any of those?
Never read the book, never seen the film
5 - Mechanical Pencil Day: Mechanical pencils are inherently superior to regular pencils if only for one reason: you don't have to sharpen them. Do you, or did you, use mechanical pencils at school or on the job, or just out of personal preference?
I used to use propelling pencils when at school for convenience, and carried that on to college. Now I tend to use ordinary ones. When I used a pencil at orchestra/band I always used a normal one as I used a very, very soft one (easier to erase)
6 - Fried Chicken Day: Do you like fried chicken? Do you make your own, or do you prefer take-out? What's your favourite place to get fried chicken?
Love it
When Jiffy was alive I used to walk to my local chip shop every winter Saturdau for chicken and chips ... Jiffy and I shared!
7 - Tell the Truth Day: What would happen if everyone on earth spoke only the 100% truth today -- no sugar-coating or lying by omission?
There would be a lot of upset people ... in other words, the "does my backside look big?" would be a scary answer for some people!!!!
Right, let's get on ... hope to see you soon x
