We've been invited to a 60th Wedding Anniversary Party, imagine that. WHAT an achievement.
Joyce & Dennis were at our wedding 31 years ago. Joyce is John's 1st cousin & has been to NZ so we have lots of chats about the gorgeous places there. They had a lovely party with lots of family & friends from all over the UK.
On the way down for the weekend we wound our way (rather literally) down to Hartington in Derbyshire in the south Peak District. Another gorgeous area with some great walking so another place we have to get back too. We had been here years ago & wanted to go back because there is a farm there which makes fantastic Stilton cheese. It was worth driving an extra hour to get there & we now have a "beautiful baby" round to help celebrate Christmas. John's sense of direction again gave us more challenges, mind you if you are trying to map read with the map upside down it is tricky sorting out right from left & north from south!! Still the dear boy got us there & we were still in time for the pub!! & a lovely lunch.
On Sunday we had a lovely walk to Kinver with Sue & Peter, walking though lovely autumnal woods & looking out to Shropshire. After another good meal at Sue's, part of which was a delicious Damson tart we sped back up to Yorkshire in 3 hours almost all on motorway.
