Bristol Balloon Festival

Image
I am looking at a couple of days at the rally. The campsite is almost next to where the balloon festival is held. I am don't think we'd be there for the entire weekend that the festival will be on for, but maybe get there on the 5th or 6th before the balloon goes up.... I have no idea how big the rally field is and hopefully there will be more information in the club's magazine nearer the time. It's a shame it's a no booking rally.

Molly's gone!! Vanished!!

If I was a YouTuber i would use my new AI skills, such as they are, to create a dramatic thumbnail. But it's quite mundane and she has gone to ARC for the taps to be replaced. She'll be gone a few days to get the work done.

Hythe Dog Walk

I had barely driven half way to Hythe when I started to get the flashing lights in my left eye. It's the introduction to a migraine. Of course, I was travelling light and my man-bag with my meds was at home! So after parking up in the Waitrose carpark the first stop the chemist in the high street to exchange £9 for 12 Migraleve pills. They have gone up in price dramatically over the last few years. The plan was for Claire to go to Pilates whilst Reggie and I would walk up the high street and then around the canal over a couple of bridges. Whilst Claire would be occupied for an hour we could whip round. By the time we had got to the Lady's Walk bridge the migraine had past. It took the best part of three quarters of an hour to get round to the car again. Another nice walk to make the most of the sunny day 

White Cliffs Sunday

Image
Yesterday, we had a run to our favourite place (locally) to fill up with diesel and have a walk in the March sunshine. With Mr Trump's war with Iran going badly and the oil tankers unable to get through to bring us the oil we need, fuel prices are steadily going up. With a couple of trips planned I decided to fill up. The Petrolprices app on my phone said the Murco station on the Canterbury road was cheapest. It's gone from £1.419 to £1.629 since the bombing started. Thanks.  From there we went to the National Trust White Cliffs of Dover. Plenty of space in the dedicated parking.  The good weather brought out the crowds. Boy, was it busy. We had a coffee. Claire wanted a sausage roll but it seems they only had cake!  We took a walk on the loop up to the top of the first path and then back through the fields to the top car park. I took a few photos on the walk. It was quite hazy over the sea and over Dover Castle.
