Holiday, trips and events

  • Week 273 – May 31st – Speldhurst cricket club

    This afternoon, I went with Claire to the Speldhurst cricket club to try out the new chair and see how the team was doing. 

    The match ended in a tie, six of the last ball by the visiting team Leigh. 

    Must have been some game?

  • Week 273 – May 30th – Bexhill on sea

    Well, we got sold by the weather app and Sussex weather websites today. 

    Everything was saying cloudy at home and sunny cloudy at the coast, with the coast being 20C and home 24C 

    We first travelled to Goring by Sea and it’s good that you can still park that close to the beach free. 

    We got out the car and took a walk, we soon realise that the wind would be beat us and it did. It was far too cold to sit outside. 

    I asked Claire to check the weather app, not sure why has there was no sun here, but when I spoke to my mum and then checked the CCTV it was glorious sun back home. 

    The app said it would be brightened up around 2pm. 

    So, we decided to drive to Bexhill on Sea as the coastal path is flat and we liked a restaurant there. 

    The app this time got it right as it did brighten up, but still a strong wind. 

    We took a walk along the sea front and came across the restaurant Pebbles and decided to get food here. 

    Lovely service and food.

  • Week 272 – May 21st – Mission Impossible

    On the day that should have been my dad’s birthday and already 1 week since his burial, we decided to go to the opening day of the new Mission Impossible film, reckoned to be the last one. 

    I was glad at the weekend we watch part 1 of the film again on Netflix and there was no real recap in this film and considering it was nearly two years ago I thought that was strange. 

    A typical mission impossible film with a lot of action, slow areas and cheeky moment. 

    If it is the last film, we both thought it went out in style, but you never know with Cruise look at the end.

    So was this the final Mission Impossible film

  • Week 272 – May 20th – Visited dad

    Today we went over to Tunbridge Wells, to a garden centre. 

    We had a bit of lunch, and whilst eating and talking, I said to Claire can we visit my dad’s grave, as tomorrow would have been his birthday. Claire said yes and why don’t we take something, we both looked at each other and I said that bucket you pointed at when we came in 

    So, we got that and a kingfisher ornament.  

    The grave location is in a hot spot, boy we set on the bench and wow we got hot, but my parents have become sun worshippers, you see them, and they look like they have been aboard for 6 months. 

    Early happy birthday day. RIP 

    Dad
