I loved the simplicity of this front garden, I think you have to be very restrained!

Chastleton House
A rare gem of a jacobean country house, Chastleton House was built between 1607 and 1612 by a prosperous wool merchant as an impressive statement of wealth and power. Owned by the same increasingly impoverished family until 1991, the house remained essentially unchanged for nearly 400 years as the interiors and contents gradually succumbed to the ravages of time.
Broadway
Broadway is one of the most beautiful Cotswold villages, situated at the Gateway to the Cotswolds It has a wide high street lined with horse chestnut trees, contains a mixture of period houses and picturesque honey coloured Cotswold stone cottages which have lured visitors for centuries. The street through Broadway was an ancient 'ridgeway' and and the main road from Worcester to London. It remains a wide street or 'broad way' hence the name.
My Mum
My mum was asleep in her porridge most mornings after 8 hours sleep.
Reasons for not blogging.
Judith Woods and the Great british baker boy.
I'm all for five day weekends.
I love weekends, especially the ones where you have done everything during the week, all that is left to do is have a nice time for two days.This weekend was one of those, we had my youngest son and his girlfriend visit, we saw nice things, ate nice things, enjoyed each others company, and we managed to fit in the all important relaxing doing nothing. However I feel all that was lacking was three more days.
First snow
More mason jars, and a blog recommendation.
Snow Please.
I've been busy working and decorating my Mum's apartment, therefore blogging has taken a bit of a back seat! I have decided that I hate sanding doors, but unfortunately I have quite a few in my own house that need doing, so I will have to hold onto that thought for a while.
Do you do stockings?
Dont forget to take time out.
It's all in the wrapping.
Mr B is back
I am pleased to announce that Mr B is back to normal, the final total Mr B and his two friends raised for Children in Need is not in yet but he thinks it will be somewhere around 1,300 pounds.
No place like home.
I'm back in body if not in spirit, well actually I'm not too sure about the body being back if I'm honest.Coming back from holiday is very abrupt I find, one minute you are on holiday the next minute boom, your into three weeks of dirty washing, sorting out mail, friends and relatives visiting with their news, (which is nice don't get me wrong).
