Oh to be in England

We have just spent a few days with our very good friends who live in Cheshire. We managed to fit in a day at a museum, a fabulous meal at a gastro pub and a surprise visit to one of the "girls" who used to work for us, whom we have not seen for ten years. As usual Paul and Jennifer were superb hosts - lots of wine, food and laughs!!

We didn't expect balmy warm weather for our visit but neither did we expect lying snow.  We looked out of the window on Friday morning to see a winter wonderland. All very nice on picture postcards but a little unnerving when you have an hours drive to Liverpool Airport. By the time we got there the snow had turned to heavy rain and everything was reassuringly grey. 
Conditions were no better when we arrived at Limoges and we had torrential rain all the way home. By the state of the flooded fields around the village it had been raining all the time we were away.

We shouldn't go to visit friends in March. Last year we went to southern Spain and it poured with rain and was freezing cold.
