Hi all....we've finally had the chance to visit Furness Abbey in the morning sunshine...we've had messages from our
ex-pat followers all around the world (hi Canada, USA, Australia, Dubai, Phillipines!!) asking if something had happened-they love catching up with their home town and families-nothing has happened.... we've just been flat out trying to survive with work and weddings and never seeing the daylight...just like everyone else!!!
Lovely cuppa at Abbey Mill......
........and there is a bit of a 'buzz' that English Heritage have got some exciting plans and projects for the place in the near future, and also that the Abbey Tavern might be included in those plans...let's hope so.
Frankie seems to be having yet another growth spurt at the moment.........
....and keeping his sister entertained with stories about school and smashed phones and sausage buns!
Nana had a bit of a muddy fall today...the air was blue, because she'd dirted her 'traw-ziz'!!
We joined many other Barrovians a couple of weeks ago, in Emlyn Street car park to photograph the gathering of waxwings that were brooding in the rowan trees...it has been three years since we spotted them in Barrow in a tree on the green at Dunmail Raise, and they were gone by Saturday tea time, but we got a few shots!
Hillman senior road trip earlier this week, in all that sub zero weather.......
Hillmans with the Hillman!
Can't take him anywhere!
I did get a new Herdy for my collection, even though I was probably working quite hard whilst they were all having fun!! We've been up in the loft this weekend-we've got big building projects starting on Tuesday and needed to do some clearing- and we've found some hilarious photos, from the time when photos actually came on photographic paper...
...that's me and my sister in 1991- I think I was in my fourth year of teaching....
...now I'm in my twenty-ninth!!!!
Some beautiful Furness Abbey Sunrise shots for all you ex-pat followers out there.....
...this blog is dedicated to you all!!
