Then we went to Kington


Photos rather than words today as I've been awake and doing since 5 a.m. this morning.  This is a view of the middle of Kington which follower Marlane should remember very well.  It was such a peaceful little town, but I am guessing it is busy on market day each Friday.  There's a Saturday market monthly too - crafts and what have you.  There were 3 charity shops, banks all shut (as they are everywhere - nearest one is probably Hereford, or perhaps Leominster), and a good selection of individual traders, plus a Londis and places where you could suit most of your day-to-day needs.  Everyone was SO friendly and if we do move to that area, I have already been offered a place helping at the local Riding for the Disabled group, which would please me no end.

Anyway, back tomorrow, with photos from our outing to the Antiques Roadshow valuations which were held at the National Botanic Gardens today.  We stood queuing in the rain for quite a while, to discover - of course! - that our geese were just geese and not gilded swans!!











What a place to put a telegraph pole - totally spoils that lovely view!!
