Outing of the week

Went for a visit to Cogges Manor Farm, Witney, Oxfordshire this week.  There is a wonderful adventure playground my 2 year old grandaughter loved it, but I would have liked to have seen more animals but we had a lovely time anyway.

Update

I am getting so frustrated not able to get on the allotment because of rain, there is so much to do!  I took a trip to Abingdon instead today to top up my ribbon stash. They have shops there called Masons  and along with craft supplies they have a good old fashioned fabric/haberdashery shop & a wool shop.  I buy many of my supplies there & if the weather is good a walk by the Thames is added, not today though it was back to the multi story car park & return home.

Unable to get out on the garden or my allotment because of the weather this is a selection of how I have been filling my time.

This blogging is not going to be as easy as I thought, but I will persevere.
