As we write having been back for 3 weeks from the US, it is hard to know where the time has gone. We have been busy settling back into life in the UK. While away, our electric went out for 4-5 days, so we needed to clean up the fridge and freezer. We had friends watch our allotment while away, but there were still things to be done once returning. All it needed was a little weeding, planting, and pruning. We are enjoying lots of food from the allotment these days.
It has been great to see our friends again after our long absence. At the end of July, we celebrated Leon’s 40th birthday with about two dozen friends. (We had already celebrated all the Hedding July and August birthdays while together in the US, so this was a second party.) The weather was threatening, but it never rained and we had lovely fellowship with our friends around an outdoor fire pit.
