Took Monty for a long walk over the fields, I must start walking him over to the canal towpath and then up to Kings Lock Cottage tea rooms, now they've opened again for the summer. It's a beautiful cottage and the couple (Tony and Julie) who run it are absolutely lovely people. I'd hate to see their business fail for lack of custom. They've had a tough time with the weather these past 2 years, so I really should throw a little money their way.
(In picture taken by Andrew Denny of Granny Buttons fame, Tony unhooks the tearoom sign for the last time in 2006 and didn't reopen again until Good Friday 2007)
I think they've extended the gardens at the back so it'll be interesting to see how much bigger they've managed to make that area.
Got home and updated this document, then settled down to work out why the videos hadn't uploaded to YouTube. Sussed it and uploaded the larger videos. I'll have to sort through them and try to post them into this blog in the correct order, but that's a job for another day.
Swine Flu - the panic grows and shrinks - time to stock up on provisions just in case we're told to stay in doors or we get to ill to shop. I can't see a trip to ASDA in either circumstances being a very good idea. The news appears to be saying that the virus isn't as deadly as was first though but I'm afraid this might lull people into a false sense of security. It's still flu, which is a bastard, and it's one that none of us will have any immunity to, so even if it doesn't kill thousands it can still bring the country to a grinding halt.
Can't recall anything of any great purpose happening during the rest of the day.
