Friday update

And here we are at Friday again. The weeks really do whizz by.

So what have we been up to since Tuesday? Well Wednesday was a miserable day so we caught up with some housework and sorting in the garage, then went into Huntingdon to collect Peter’s new glasses and pickup some gardening stuff for the allotment.  By the time we were back at the car it started to rain so decided to call in on mother in law before going home. It poured with rain all afternoon, evening and through the night. So knitting was how I spent my time.

I managed to finish two projects this week. The Linus shawl and the Scalloped edge cardigan 

Thursday we walked in the morning. As everywhere was wet first thing we walked the Thicket Path from Houghton Mill, just under 6 miles.  I met with a friend during the afternoon so that was my day taken up.

This is our forecast for the next few days

Today we headed out towards Godmanchester 

We walked nearly right round the meadows, which we’d not done before. Most enjoyable apart from a few soggy spots, which forced us to detour through Huntingdon. However, our route took us passed the old castle mound which we had seen from the car but never visited. So much on your doorstep that you miss out on until you get out walking. 

11 miles walked today, I’m sure there is more on the cards for the weekend. I’m really hoping that all this exercise will trim us down a bit, but it certainly gives you a good appetite!!
