Guests on Board
2014-05-11 02:57:00
Yesterday (Sat ) we arranged to meet Robbie & their daughter Abi to come on board for an overnight experience. Of course the offer to do so was from Australia and our glossy advertising that said The Emily could comfortably sleep 6.!!! We/ they managed to sleep under the table. Abbi was right onto the mechanics before bedtime.
Robbie ( Bless him ) after many stops & starts with communication treated us with home made Lasagne and treat of treats a great salad, followed by Apple Crumble and "no cream", " no custard ". L saved the day with his signature dish....left over icecrem from Ellesmere. There's more...we also had fresh bread stick, and there is a renewed supply of chocolate in the cupboard. Guests are great !!!
Breakfast after our guests have been ejected from their luxurious bedroom.
New " lock boy " this morning.,along with apprentice Abi.
Wonderful after all these years to see Rob again with his daughter.
Abi, our resident Jack - in- a- box.

A not very good photo of Beeston Castle in the distance.
Mothers Day hug. She'd a tear when I heard from both children and Kerrie & Maggie sent a photo of Mum's daphne starting to bloom.
M & L have willingly been subjected to a new game that Abbi brought along testing their intelligence..
Can report there were signs of rapid improvement.
Love from all to dear friends and family.
