Father's Day

My girls gave me their father's day card with..."I know you'll put them on your blog."  Yes, let's share them with the whole world (or to be exact, my few Russian followers, trying to improve their English.) (Well that's what Google Stats tell me.)

Dwi's visit and Sunday Afternoon walk in the country

 Dwi introduced us to his wonderful family.  Marcella and Allegra, his daughter.  Also his father and mother-in-law, over from Indonesia.
Our farewell to Dwi's in-laws after the church service.


The Starr Family (Thanks Elizabeth
 Our Sunday walk from Rolleston to Goadby, and then over to Tugby, and back to Goadby.

The First National Trust House in Leicestershire

On May the 2nd the Starrs, Buttons, Evie and Marion visited Stoneywell.  We easily penetrated the staff  silence over why no one is allowed to walk to the house.  We discovered that the anti-social neighbours became worried that their rural idyll may have been disrupted and launched a planning protest.  The compromise was that visitors are to meet in a distant hidden car park, place paper bags over their heads, and are whisked onto the property through an electronically operated gate.
