Month: June 2022

  • Week 117 – June 12th – Greenwich – Part 1

    We decided to go up to Greenwich again for a walk in the park and by the Thames.

    Never seen the river Thames so high.

    Compare this picture to the one I took in early May. (see earlier post in blog)

  • Week 117 – June 10th – Always good to enquire

    Yesterday we went to a coffee shop for a coffee with our reusable cups and you get extra rewards for doing this.

    During the day I checked and noticed I hadn’t been correctly rewarded.

    So I filled in a form and today I had a response from the customer service and was given double points.

    Always good to check and follow up  

  • Week 117 – June 9th – Ridiculous

    For the first time in this country to fuel a petrol car up, cost over £100.

    It’s just ridiculous how everything has gone up in the last few months.

    Something has to give as the cost of living is just spiraling out of control!!

  • Week 116 – June 5th – Platinum Jubilee Pageant

    The last day of the four day Platinum Jubilee for the Queen.

    A pageant was put on, again thankfully the weather stay dry for the performers and the people watching.

    It was good to see the younger and older royals interact whilst watching and shows how the Royal family has evolved over the Queen’s rein.

    The Queen made an appearance on the balcony which was great to see.

  • Week 116 – June 4th – High Elm Country Park

    As the weather improved today, we decided to go to Farnborough, but there was nowhere to park, unless you were willing to pay.

    So I drove to High Elm Country Park, here the car park was free.

    Haven’t been here for at least 30 years, but it hasn’t changed that much in all that time.

    Good to get out for a walk and fresh air.

  • Week 116 – June 3rd – Lunch

    Maybe this is part of the reason, why the cost of a ticket is so high at Lord’s?

    Look at the lunch time player’s menu. (Lord’s is famous for their food)

    Part of the ICC survey I was doing for the week.

    Lunch
    Players lunch menu, i’m sure part of the reason a ticket is so expensive.
