I've been away

I have just come back from a wonderful holiday - one of the best I've had for years. Two weeks in Italy at a friends apartment near Lucca, a week in London and Cheltenham seeing family, a week in a Normandie farmhouse, a wedding in France and then home!

This is the view from my bedroom - not bad waking up there every morning for two weeks?
The fruit and vegetables in Italy in summer are beautiful - favourites were raw garlick, asparagus and corgettes.



Things to do in Italy included:

lunching in Lucca


giving advice to Deb's workmen!



Shopping in Florence

more to come on UK and France.
