WOYWW #58

I know all you WOYWWers out there wonder where the days since last Wednesday have gone and I am no exception. The only difference is, I don't know where the last 28 days have gone. It's incredible that we have been on our hols for that length of time and even more incredible when I tell you that it has only rained twice!!

Anyway, today is our last day away and we make the trek back up north tomorrow.



This has been our view over the last 6 days. It's a lovely site within a water activity park and one for another visit in the future. However, if you consider coming here, even just for a meal in the restaurant, remember to bring lots of loaves for the ducks and swans. We have had to go out each day for at least 2!!
Yesterday we did a little round trip to Evesham, Pershore and back. You would never guess what we saw on the Abbey tower in Pershore - no not Toya Wilcox who lives in the town - but a peregrine falcon Just sitting there watching us watching him, or her. How lucky was that? A young couple came talking to us and told us all about it.
Added to the little vole we saw at the Hillhead site in Brixham, they were the 2 most amazing bits to remember from this holiday.

Well, there's no craft on my table today, just my orchids.


We didn't put the awning up when we came here so my plants have been inside taking up my crafting space. I doubt I shall get the chance to 'play' today either as I want to give the van a really good clean.
Now it's come to an end, I just want to get home and am looking forward to my Ranger workshop on Saturday with Lindsay. I need to get my mojo back and that will certainly do the trick.



So my craft cupboards are packed.


I will go off to link this and have a nosey at some of the other WOYWWers and hopefully leave a few comments. Funny how I can do that but can't reply to my emails. Anyway, back on broadband from tomorrow. TTFN.

You 've really picked the best month weather -wise! Amazing. But like you, once I'm at the end, I have an overwhelming NEED to get home and sorted. I guess that's why they are holidays and not everydays! Enjoy Saturday!

Love how everything gets packed neatly back in your van! We stopped to look at Chichester Cathedral back in May and they had a nesting pair of Peregrines there. The RSPB was in attendance and they had a camera in the nesting box so we could see the chicks. Quite amazing! Have a safe journey home.

Hugs
