We awoke to another gorgeous day and decided to go for a walk after dropping Sophie off at work. We walked into the village and then down the stony track to the Nature reserve. Apart from birdsong and the occasional drone of a plane, it was beautifully quiet.
Rather than walk the perimeter of the reserve we took a grassy path that led inwards to the reservoir and sat on a little bench to enjoy a drink and a biscuit. Here, it was so serene and I could have sat all day just listening to the calls of the birds and the rustle of the wind through the tall firs.
However, time was getting on so we carried on until we reached our normal walk and headed home.
Back home we'd just had lunch and was sitting relaxing when the phone rang and it was Sophie wanting to be picked up from work. By now, it was too late to go anywhere for a cup of tea so we came home and I pottered about in the garden until it was time to collect Mike from Brixworth.
I broke my non-drinking period tonight and enjoyed a glass or two of red wine with our chicken en croute! Delicious!
