A week of
luxury! In a house for a whole week on Di and Fraser’s family property (friends
from Brisbane). They have a cottage 500m down the road and we are in the main
house. It’s luxury to have a proper kitchen to cook in and room to move about.
Quite cold here but we have a lovely wood burner to warm the place.
It is so
quiet here and so dark at night, I don’t
think I have ever been anywhere so dark you cannot see your own hand in front
of your face. The property is set in a lovely forest with tracks going through
it everywhere. I would definitely be able to get lost here.
Went on an
outing to St Erth to the Diggers gardens which were gorgeous. Trekked through
the forest and went to visit an abandoned gold mine where the tunnel went for
ages before it had collapsed in. That was very exciting.
Played golf
at Trentham golf course Fraser won, I was second and Simon was last. That does
not happen often so had to record it in the blog!
A really
lovely week of good food, good company and lots of wine consumed by some!
