Pride, Patches and A Challenge

05 Jul

After days and days of sunshine, today was properly damp which was brilliant for the garden but sad for Market Day and the Pride Party in the Park.  We did our usual Saturday foray into town for fruit, veg, coffee in our favourite coffee shop and a laugh with Make A Mends.

Pride bunting in the wind and rain. On a sunny day this courtyard is buzzing.

I donated a pretty top that I no longer wear to Make A Mends and they, in their inimitable fashion, have made it even prettier.

We met a lovely couple in HomeGround coffee shop, Heidi and Pete, who were at the start of their Land’s End to John O’Groats cycle ride. Should they read this, we wish them all the best on this adventure.

    They look well-geared up for the 1200 mile ride . . . did they say how many weeks they had set aside for the journey?

      Yes, a month, aiming for about 60 miles a day. They were so enthusiastic and so willing to tell us all their plans. I’m sorry we didn’t exchange numbers, just names.

        Let’s hope they don’t succumb to saddle sores. 😀
