Hello again, I’ve been out in the countryside for the better part of a month and haven’t been able to do much with my blog. Connectivity has not always been available and it has been a time for chilling out.

At the end of July we found ourselves in Saltburn on the east coast and found that someone or some group had knitted little Olympians depicting lots of Olympic sports and attached them to the railings on the pier and also a tribute to the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee on the railing at the top of the cliff railway. I thought it was fun and it was giving a lot of pleasure to a lot of kids too.
