I loved that old phone pbox peeping out in the corner of someone's garden. |
But I kept my wallet closed with great restraint, despite temptation. (Okay, I may have had one of those lovely treats from one of the windows above!)
Love that brass plaque! |
Then we saw this sign, and seeing as how I had 'permission' (as if I need it!) I treated myself to new slippers.
Then I came home and my stupid computer was buggered again. But himself had a back up for me to use. Which I am using now. Let's hope it plays nice. So far so good.
Spending a day with a fab friend in a beautiful place is a highly recommended activity. It was good to drop the girls at school and keep driving. I must do it more often.

ReplyDeleteLove Burford!
ReplyDeleteDid you pop into Cupcake Cottons?
Burford is fab. So many lovely little shops and hideaway places. The H&S inspection at Burford library once took hours...of course we may not have been in the library the whole time ;-)

ReplyDeleteFrom the other side of the world the Cotswalds sounds like a dream destination......lucky you to just pop in for a visit. Lovely slippers too.
ReplyDeleteWow that looks like a beautiful place! I love the Cotswolds, it's so pretty. And those slippers look super comfy. That's my primary concern with footwear these days - well mostly!

ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely day! Children dropped off and keep driving; sometimes so tempting I'm afraid I won't be bothering to try to find the way back at the end of the day ;-)

ReplyDeleteThis is what I always imagine England looks like - quaint , cute and full of good looking food.

ReplyDeleteI would have had to treat myself to the chocolates...looks like a gorgeous day out.
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely day to spend some time with a friend. I love the Cotswolds. When we were there Mr. R kept getting Catskills and Cotswolds mixed up and would say the "Cotskills" or the "Catswolds" Can't take him anywhere...
