Forgot to tell you all that a friend is arranging a "Metreat" in a wonderful Hotel just outside Chester http://moiramcadam.blogspot.com/
If I knew how to attach a link I would.....will have to see Chris to give me a lesson.....it is such a shame when you are old and lose touch with technology
Amended to read that I have managed to figure out how to attach a link :)

OOPS
I seem to have been neglecting my blog lately, a lot of things have happened since I last posted "a few weeks ago" ;)
For one, I had my birthday on March 27th, I have been away to Brecon with Chris to the Scappers unlimited Retreat, when the weather was glorious we took rather a lot of photos on the way there and even more on the way back!!!!This photo was taken in the grounds of the hotel

This photo of a bluebell was taken on the way home at Berrington Hall

We went to Betws y coed in March, this is my favourite photo from this trip

Also quite like this candid of a photographer by the river......

At Easter, Paul and I booked a "last minute" weekend at a hotel called Bosworth Hall, near Leicester. I can't say that I was very impressed with the hotel, but we had a lovely weekend, and the weather was very good to us......little did we know that that was our summer!!!!!
A couple of photos, this is the hotel....

I got up at 6am on the Sunday morning to get this sunrise. I must say, that I just love this photo, and I was crossing my fingers as I was taking it, hoping that it would come out OK.....

In May, chris and I did a photo session with my daughter Vikki, we both got some rather nice photos.....

and

In June Chris and I went to Bodnant Gardens in North Wales, near to Colwyn Bay, and took some fabulous photos....
The Laburnum Grove

And this young man was "strutting his stuff" trying to impress the ladies....

On the 6 june, Chris and some of her friends from work ran the Race For Life at Chester Zoo, I was nominated the official photographer, because I couldn't even walk it due to my "gammy" knee.
Chris........

About a 100 metres from the finish line.....

At the end of June Paul and I went to our favourite Hotel Thorseby Hall in Nottinghamshire, where we were meeting a couple form Kent who we had met there last year......

This is another peacock who was "strutting his stuff" but the poor thing doesn't even have a peahen to show off too - poor thing!! However, he was very good and just stood there and posed for me!!!!

i had taken wome wild bird seed with us, and fed the birds every morning and afternoon, this little chap was one of the very many who came to feed....

In July i went to Center Parcs in the Lake District with my mum, sister, brother in law, daughter and her partner, son and his partner, nephew and his partner, and little nephew and his mate.
We had a wonderful week, and it only rained on the Thursday afternoon...... Here is Vikki doing a tree trek!!

and Vikki and Mand, my eldest nephews' girlfriend.....

Enough of photos!!!!
I am back on my diet and have lost nearly 6lbs in 2 weeks, making 36.25lbs, which in English money is 2 stone 8.25 lbs!!! I want to have lost 4 stone by Christmas, but would really love to have lost 4.5 stone!!!! We will have to wait and see.........
Speak soon
