The final full day of the trip, the weather was terrible. It virtually rain all day.
We went to a village called Broadway, very quaint.
Claire saw a piece of jewellery she liked, I said she could have it as an early birthday gift. So after trying it on, she was happy, but then the fun and games started.
I went to pay by card and I thought the card machine was dark. I said to the lady shop assistant, was it switched on and she said yes. I said are you sure as its dark and nothing happened? We were her first customer of the day.
Now this was a very small shop, I would say the shop assistant was in her 60’s and were in Covid19 times. She got on the floor and was looking at cables and after a while said it was.
To cut a long story short, I got down and realised she had been looking at the wrong cable, I tried various things but it was obviously an issue with the power. We ended up paying by cash, though she didn’t even offer like a £5 discount for the help I gave. After we left, she closed the shop and went of somewhere. I did take this up with their headquarters but nothing either. I’ll remember for next time.
After trying to get into a couple of restaurants and couldn’t, we ended up at the Broadway Hotel. Very Covid19 secure, which when I look at trip advisor I’m surprised at some of the people’s responses. Obviously Covid19 idiots!
We had a good lunch and drink there.
We stay at the Wood Norton hotel, I think this is our third stay and most likely last, they said that they had been very busy since reopening after lockdown, but it is definitely starting to show its age, which is a shame as it’s in lovely grounds.
We so needed that break, even though the weather wasn’t brilliant it was still nice to get away.
