A friend from our 2CV trip to Tours has been let down by her house sitter. It’s a long way from Scotland to Petersfield in Hampshire, but I agree to go and sit with Beetle, who sadly has broken his leg.
A most beautiful two weeks in a small village just outside Petersfield. Having thought I was insured on the house owners car, it turns out I’m not, so I’m restricted to the village shop – and oh, the use of the swimming pool. A relaxing two weeks, enjoying the best of the summer sunshine, combined with some swims, very short dog walks and a few beers.
In many ways, I can’t argue with these restful days before the wedding, which is now very much on the horizon!
