<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">And this Sunday (13th May) the Snowdrop Trust are once again holding their very popular Annual Charity Walk at Arundel Castle Park, Arundel from 2.00pm to 5.00pm.<br />There will be various stalls to browse and refreshments with homemade cakes. If you are feeling energetic there is a very scenic 5 mile route or a shorter (and flatter!) 1 mile one to choose from.<br /><br />Sponsored walkers are free,<strong> </strong>Aduls £3, children over 10 £1 and children under 10 free. Dogs on LEADS welcome.<br /><br />So if you have a spare hour or so and find yourself in the area come along and enjoy the sunshine we have been promised whilst raising funds for a very worthwhile cause.<br /><br />Look forward to seeing you there :0)</span></div>Georgiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06094008004801351581noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1226547101031016542.post-78915549775916781622012-05-07T08:41:00.000+01:002012-05-07T08:41:37.528+01:00Blue skies<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Spring has most definitely sprung.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Thursday saw us (Red Class) at Gaston Farm, Slindon. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Set in the South Downs, it is a beautiful spot </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">where you have the chance to witness </span><span style="font-size: large;">traditional lambing, </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">get up close to the lambs and sheep themselves, </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">hold baby chicks and ducklings and enjoy a free tractor/trailer ride. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">It costs £4, with under 2's going free </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and with the help of a strong base of volunteers, </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">all proceeds from the café and shop, </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and all donations from the free tractor and trailer ride </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">go towards charities that Gaston Farm have supported for many years...</span><span style="font-size: large;">a Nepal Orphanage and an African Soup Kitchen.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">I've been back at work for a week now </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and this trip was just what the doctor ordered. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Fresh air, beautiful countryside and the miracle of new life. </span></div><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">We were lucky enough to see triplets being born. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">They were 10 days premature which in a 5 week gestation period </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">is a lot </span><span style="font-size: large;">but with a very hands on approach by the shepherd </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and his wife, all 3 were OK. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">I was totally caught up in the moment ... </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">thank goodness for sunglasses as they hid the tears in my eyes </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">from the children as I reassured them that all was going to be OK!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">that Mr P and I are really, really, really excited about. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">BIG changes afoot folks, really BIG and life won't be the same again!!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But that's all I'm going to say for now --- what a tease :0)</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Am very tired at the mo - like super tired and have got myself really run down. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Half term heralded a super duper mother of all colds, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">accompanied by a very annoying tickly cough and general malaise. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's been a week of recouping and recharging, lots of rest and cups of tea. </span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But with half term coming to an unwelcome end, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've had to bite the bullet and knuckle down. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yesterday was all about data inputting. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I have ignored, avoided and diverted myself from the task all week </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">but yesterday I knew I had to grit my teeth and approach it head on.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However, to help things along the way I decided </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">that a little of what I fancied could certainly do some good.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Hmmmmmm.</div><div style="text-align: center;">So last weekend when the Fairtrade and Ethics Fair was hosted at Arundel Castle</div><div style="text-align: center;">and having lived just 10 minutes away for the past thirty years, </div><div style="text-align: center;">I thought this really is too good an opportunity to miss and visited for the first time!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><em>(And bonus, because it was in a castle, Mr P was inclined to come along too).</em></div><br />

</tbody></table><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-small;"><em>The seat of The Dukes of Norfolk and set in 40 acres of sweeping grounds and gardens, Arundel Castle has been open to visitors seasonally for nearly 200 years. It is one of the great treasure houses of England, each having its own unique place in history and is home to priceless works of art. Come and see paintings and furniture, tapestries and stained glass, china and clocks, sculpture and carving, heraldry and armour in stunning room settings.</em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Sounds good doesn't it? I bet many of you have driven miles to see this beauty and I merely glance at it as I drive over the hill and around the by-pass on route to some other national treasure.</span><br />
<br />
Anyhoo, I can now say I have visited. And yes I loved it, and yes I wondered why I hadn't made the time before and yes I will visit again ... properly.<br />
<br />
As for the fair - it was far too busy, in too small a space with too many deadends. <em><span style="font-size: x-small;">What a grump I sound!</span></em><br />
But I did enjoy the bag of Toffee Crumble, from the traditional sweet shop in town, afterwards - mmmmmmm.<br />

Woke up late today (9.45am!!) and felt out of sorts all morning. Getting up late definitely doesn't agree with me and I end up feeling very lazy and grouchy. So Mr P was in for a great day - poor man. <br />
However, I was persuaded to step out and take the air which proved to be the perfect tonic. We drove up to The Dover and ambled through the woods for 2 hours. Me taking photos at every turn (50 to be precise) and Mr P hunting for chesnuts, which we are going to roast later on this evening and enjoy with a warmed glass of red wine - mmmmmmmm. <br />
I even agreed to have my photo taken, which if you know me you will know is nothing short of a minor miracle!!<br />
I thoroughly enjoyed blowing the cobwebs away today.Georgiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06094008004801351581noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1226547101031016542.post-54725505430811755522011-08-27T13:26:00.006+01:002011-08-27T13:45:19.685+01:00Out and About<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">The last couple of days have been very pleasant indeed.</span></div><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Our first stop was a lovely little place called Middle Farm, just outside of Lewes. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous gift shop (purchased an iron key hook with hearts) and a delightful farm shop full of delicious, tempting goodies ... cheese scone anyone?</div><div style="text-align: center;">Then back on the road with a detour to the De La Warr Pavillion in Bexhill. I've seen this building on TV and had an urge to visit. Don't know what I was expecting but came away feeling disappointed -- a lovely building but lots of construction going on, which equalled noise and mess. <br />
So only a couple of pics taken from the rooftop to show we was here!!</div><br />

'The Feel Good Factor' by Patrick Holford - 10 proven ways to boost your mood and motivate yourself. Now I don't see myself as particularly down in the dumps, but sometimes I think I could do with a little extra oomph and I have been feeling rather lethargic and lacking in 'get up and go' recently. The title sounded so positive and proactive that I immediately purchased said book on Amazon and upon delivery devoured the first two chapters - 'The anatomy of feeling good' and 'My top ten mood-boosting secrets'. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The conclusion thus far is that I need to banish my 'sugar blues', which in turn should also help my concentration levels and memory (which are questionable at the best of times). The answer, it seems, is a cocktail of supplements on a daily basis. Cod Liver Oil capsules for healthy brain function (as well as oiling the joints). Chromium tablets to decrease sugar cravings, adjust my blood sugar levels and to make me feel generally perkier. And a high-potency multivitamin to cover all bases.</div><br />

It sits perfectly at the side of the house and amazingly tidies everything up. I refer to it as our "french quarter" now and even bought plants to coordinate with it!!</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;">The deal is the shed is for Mr P but because it is so close to the house and can be seen from the french doors, I got to choose the colour. Tricky .... do you know how many lovely colours and shades there are?!?! I set out with Cornflower Blue in mind but when I was faced with a choice I began to dither. Willow? Sage? Bluebell? Country house Cream? Thankfully Mr P was on hand to speed things up and we came away with my first choice. Excellent decision ...... I LOVE IT.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The weather was gorgeous and has enticed growth in the garden. When I wasn't being a "Very Important Person" - holding tacks, supporting shed walls, making tea for Bob the Builder - I was able to amble around the garden, snipping, digging, moving and shaping the recently awakened plants and shrubs into some sense of order. The Acer tree is magnificent and Gert loves to lie beneath it watching the comings and goings of the day. The May and Jade trees have erupted with blossom and look gorgeous. Everywhere I look there are signs of new life. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After much reshuffling I was left with a number of empty pots on the patio crying out for some friendly occupants and needing no better excuse I set out for the local garden centre. The criteria ... anything that grabbed my attention and looked pretty. And after an hour of bimbling around I came away with Cosmos, Saxifrage, Alyssum and Aquilegia. I also couldn't resist the sweet scents of Jasmine and Sweetpea, so they came home too!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I have fallen in love with the garden all over again.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Not much was happening: a few people titivating their gardens, washing their cars and enjoying the unusual and short lived sunshine. I think the warmth of the day and the suggestion of Spring put everyone in a good mood as there were many "hellos" and nods of greeting as I passed by. The beach however, was near deserted, apart from the odd dog walker in the distance. Very peaceful.</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
