and back in Stratford - the library. 

now we're in Oxford...........dreaming spires and all that......... 

Carrie with Jenny's cat..........oh, and the chins, i was told to destroy this one.......... 

the last garden and getting a bit tired by this time............ 

truly rural........... 

says it all really........... 

village church, very pretty.......... 

we thought the chooks were funny so we took their picture......... 

lovely Elizabethan pile........... 

Patricia having a meditative moment.......... 

the manor house.......... 

beautiful gardens and lovely Cotswold stone........and TEAS!....... 

this is only one of loads of photos of Morris dancers, well , i know they look silly but i like it.......... 

nice view and trying to hide the rather less nice rubbish bin........ 

............hard work, all this strolling......(note Carrie's new decisive haircut...........) 

..............and now we're down south.........our week in the caravan with Patricia.........a glorious day in Illmington looking at the gardens...... 

............just so excited by the new liner......... 

oh, the POND!!.......... 

aren't they cute? 

haaaaaaaaaa! 

............being sweet is what she does best........anyway.........revenge will be swift and terrible.......... 

since i'm the editor i'm really tempted to leave this one out.............but the cat is quite sweet......... 

difficult to tell, but this is us dressed up for the Hoedown Ball. such a sight you never saw.........the rainbow gaiters from Cologne went down a treat and we would have won a prize if we'd been early enough.........it was at this point that we decided we needed dance lessons............ 

we still haven't found out what kind of bird this is............this was our walk on the Pentlands i think, on the way back after coming round the reservoir....... 

with picturesque ferry...........this is Community Week and Carrie wasn't actually here at this point...........
