Caught in the act.




This is what a 100g of yarn looks like after Violet's had her wicked little way with it. 

 It'll take me hours to unravel that lot.

So what did you get upto this weekend?

Our little clan went on a couple of little adventures.

On Saturday we visited Hanbury Hall in Worcestershire.





How neat is this Veg plot? 

Picking Daisies

Trying to climb into the pond

Then on Sunday we ventured just a few miles to Baddesley Clinton Manor in Warwickshire. (Aka - my new home).

It's beautiful.
Not too big,
not too small.

With a moat

and duckies.


Violet just can't resist blowing the Dandelion clocks.

Searching for the Ogre under the bridge.

Skipping through the buttercups in the wildlife meadow.


Quick cuddle from mum after a little fall (yet more bruised knees).

This looks like a pretty garden. Shall we go through the gate and take a look around?

Peonies - one of my favourite flowers



"Mum, where are you?"

"Found you"


Time to go.
But, I'll be back,
very, very soon.

  1. Oooh that looks like a lovely place, you'll have to invite me round for a cup of tea once you're living there! :)

    The photos of the yarn unravelling make my head feel dizzy. The knots...the tangling...argh!

  2. I think you'll find that Baddesley Clinton is in fact my house as husband was the Duck man when we went there and had them following him around! LOL!

  7. I agree with the others that your pictures depict a truly lovely place. And oh my, Miss Violet is certainly a busy little girl. I don't envy you having to untangle that ball of yarn but I do hope Violet's knees recover from her other misadventures.
