Got up quite excited on the 10th as off to Holt to get re-acquainted with Danny Greatwood after about 48 years and to meet his wife of 45 years for the first time.
Decided the day before that as we could not arrive until after 1800 that we would pay a long awaited visit to Tyntesfield House, a National Trust property near Bristol on the way.
Unfortunately the weather had other ideas and it was a really horrid morning with really heavy April showers, the fact that it was May seemed immaterial ha ha! So we decided to abandon plan a and do a plan b and divert to Frome and see if Mike and Jane were up for lunch at the Frome Flyer? They certainly were so they booked a table for 1300 and we arrived at the same time as them, after having a coffee break on the way, at 1250. A wonderful lunch was had with lovely company and then we just had a couple of hours to kill until we could get to Holt!
We went and had a cuppa in the garden centre at Studley then had a drive around stopping at Bradford-on-Avon for a comfort break before arriving at Holt at about 1810.
Had a lovely time and as it is now July 2019 and I have just found this I am guessing I should put it on and perhaps add a picture or 2 from the visit!
