I’m being taken out to lunch by our visiting friends today, so spend some time this morning looking at local pub menus online, trying to choose somewhere decent for us to go. The choice (after much browsing) is the Vernon Arms, which has excellent food and beer, reasonable prices and the advantage of being extremely local!
We enjoy food and a couple of beers, before retiring to our cottage for cups of tea, and then taking the dogs for a walk around the village hall field.
Once our friends have departed, I bring some logs in from the back garden, light the fire and vacuum downstairs.
