After a leisurely breakfast on Sunday, we strolled along the towpath to Bourneville.

The café was very busy, but we had a lovely lunch before heading back towards the station.

Gemma hadn’t visited the small garden centre in Bourneville, so we detoured to have a look.  The plants were all in excellent condition, so we spent some money…

Then back on the train to Northfield and a walk to Gemma’s through the park.

It was still quite early, so Gemma got her stash of painting things out and with her encouragement I managed to produce a piece of artwork.

We were both reminded of happy hours spent at the kitchen table when she and Lucy were children.

We’ve done a huge amount this weekend.  I’m amazed I’m not exhausted!
