We are currently at our timeshare in the Lakes, we started coming 40 years ago, I was a young Mum at 23!
Over the years we have had all kinds of weather but rarely a week with as good a forecast as this week, also we have hit the Autumn colours it is beyond beautiful.
We hope to achieve a good walk each day, which will be a first!

Yesterday we did Castlerigg stone circle, the light was spectacular it had such an ethereal feel.

When I got into bed last night I was so thankful for the beauty, the time spent with my lovely husband, son and daughter in law, I thought in the words of Guy Garvey One day like this will see me right!

What has your one day been?

I absolutely do not begrudge you this and hope you have many more days like this
There have been some golden days or moments in my life when I felt it couldn’t actually get any better and I treasure those.
But thinking of all of us for whom this sort of day can only be a memory.

Apologies 😳 - I realise how negative that sounded and was absolutely not meant to be a ‘downer’
Indeed, as I said, I wish you -and all of us many days like this. 🍀

A beautiful walk along a stunning stretch of the south coast. The sea was so blue. Bought an ice cream, watched the paragliders dip and soar in the distance over the cliffs. Drove home in a warm, bathing, golden light. Autumn does have its own beauty which is almost magical.

Lots of wonderful memories of very special days and happy times with my lovely husband in that very part of the world Sago

That inner peace inside of me is like a warm blanket I pull on when the reality of living life without him hits.

Thank You for your lovey OP it’s a reminder for me that loves never dies.

I returned for a day to the area where I used to have a caravan in the country. I tootled round the autumn lanes in my Noddy car with Classic FM on the radio, visited a lovely farm shop and stocked up on good things. A simple day, but perfect.

Another day recently was meeting up with a colleague I have known since I was in my teens and not seen for ages. The hours went by with good companionship and plans to meet up again.
