Monday 8 July

Got up 7.30 and had breakfast.  Took suki round Wendell then went to tesco for a few bits.  Set off for Devon at 10 . Mike went to Stoke Mandeville for bi-annual check up. Good journey down.  Saw two accidents en route.  Had air conditioning on full as very hot day.  Arrived at 1.30.  By time village clock struck 2 I was lying on sun lounger in the garden topping up the sun tan!  Did washing I had brought with me and hung it out.  Sorted post etc. Took suki out at 3.30 - walked along the river in Parke under shady trees.  River just a trickle now with side streams dried up. Suki couldn't wait to get in the water and sit her back end in it.  Horrid new benches sprung up all round the national trust cafe but still no much needed umbrellas. Went to see Mary who was very pleased to see us.  She seems fine. We sat in her room and chatted for an hour.  Had veg soup for supper sitting in garden. Such a pleasure.  Washing had dried already so brought it in. Went ringing in the evening and then a drink with bob.  Got in at 9.30 and went to bed with cold black cherry cider and csi dvd.  Suki had found favourite toy and taken it to bed with her.
