Sunday 14th May 2023.
Foggy first thing, but, by lunch time, 20c and sunny, and, it continued like that, until. evening.
Sunday, means church for Kathleen, I busy myself finding slightly shorter route, via the Church Yard of the C of E church.
I am thinking it is a bit of a waste, since this will be the last Sunday we will be here, but, it turns out, Thursday is a "Holy Day' (Ascension Day, apparently), so, a return visit to Church will be required for Kathleen.
After lunch, we "do" another of the walks described to us by the site owner.
A very pleasant walk, across the fields to the adjacent village of Frognall, it is very warm and sunny, so, a couple of Magnums (ice creams, not guns) are the order of the day.
Steaks for our evening meal, and, it is still warm enough to eat outside, not often that happens in the UK.
Monday 15th May 2023
Sunny, and dry, but, windy and cool at 14c.
I have a recurrence of my foot pain. This has happened before, a few weeks ago. The knowledgeable on on all things medical (Dana) diagnosed Plantar Fasciitis. So, today would appear to be a day of rest, certainly no walking. Cycling may be a possibility, if the wind dies down a little.
Tuesday, 16th May 2023
Sunny and dry, with 17c.
A little shopping needed, my foot is not upto walking the couple of miles to Tesco.
We cycle there instead, 4.27 miles, there and back.
Even being careful what I buy, we have a back pack each filled with stuff, too. pedal back.
I suspect another journey will be required for more wine, but, not today.
The cakes survive the journey back, so we
have coffee and cake, before setting off for a circuit of the Deepings.
No particular destination in mind, we find the pub called "The Goat" which the site owner told us about, but, the time is wrong for lunch.
We cycle on and quite unexpectedly end up in Market Deeping, The Bull is still not serving food, for some reason, so, we go to the highly recommended Lilly's Tea Room, for a light lunch (very enjoyable, bacon sandwiches bursting with bacon). The original plan is to finish off with a piece of their very tempting cakes, but, the bacon sandwich is so large, it defeats Kathleen, and, by the time I have eaten one and a half bacon. sandwiches, I cannot eat a cake too.
A few more miles, after lunch, end up with approximately 14.5.
