Current Weather at Strickley

Saturday 21 July 2007

Most popular destination?

Today's the last time Henry and I will be on our own for sometime. It seems that Strickley is the destination of choice this summer, whether you're travelling from the Midlands or the other side of the world.

Tomorrow my Australian cousins arrive to spend some time with us, at the end of an extensive tour of Europe. I hope that they think the continuous rain is a worthwhile feature. Then next weekend Victoria, Glenn, Elliot and Fletcher are coming up, especially to go to Penrith Show (which I hope doesn't succumb to cancellation due to waterlogged fields like so many others). Then some friends from Bristol are coming with their caravan as part of a tour of Northern Regions, and finally, for now, the week after a young family of second cousins are coming to camp for a week. They had such good weather last year they're coming back again. I fear their optimism may be misplaced.

So if you're stuck for somewhere to go - give us a ring! But preferably not all at once.

But seriously, we don't mind at all. I love having people to stay, and a house big enough to accommodate them.
