I loved the serenity of the place and so did she.<br /><br />No, Maureen... I didn't even know there *was* a lavender farm at Hartland. Must mention that to my husband as we were talking about picking up some lavender plants for the garden.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22922478.post-30678145031934052292009-07-07T23:19:32.424+01:002009-07-07T23:19:32.424+01:00It is gorgeous, Cath.

Don't worry about the ancient table, I bet it has witnessed far more unruly parties than my little band will be allowed to have. <br /><br />erp,<br />Your husband sounds like a saint, carrying all those bags. Didn't he learn his lesson when he had to collect all your shoes when you got married?<br /><br />RattlingOn,<br />That's the kind of mistake I make all the time. I suppose if we had made a complete change to the metric system as we did with money, we would all be used to it now. But life would be less interesting!monixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16631194815411019266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22922478.post-37049237914384518782009-07-05T14:50:27.453+01:002009-07-05T14:50:27.453+01:00The thought of 50 youngsters sitting around that b...The thought of 50 youngsters sitting around that beautiful table fills me with horror!

We were in an open air market in Alicante Spain. Everything looked fabulous and I couldn't resist, especially the dried fruit and nuts. My husband was coming up the rear paying for stuff while I went along buying stuff in two kilo lots thinking a kilo was approximately half a pound when everyone, even my husband, knows it's 2.2 lbs.<br /><br />Finally, he tapped my shoulder and said he couldn't carry any more and I should stop so he could get a basket or something. I was stunned when I turned around. He was lost under bags of every shape and material.<br /><br />When we got to England two weeks later we still had some almonds and figs left.erphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09826044412670324694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22922478.post-77659239455343788402009-07-04T22:04:25.725+01:002009-07-04T22:04:25.725+01:00I like the tablecloth tale.

It was, er, largish and took an incredible amount of filling.RattlingOnhttp://www.rattlingon.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.com
