It's been another week of early starts for Harriet because we still do not have a second car. I have, however, chosen a new Land Rover that is almost identical to the previous one. We were supposed to pick it up this weekend but it is not yet finished so we must wait a little longer. Provided this one hangs around for a while it will be worth it.
So we had the weekend to ourselves and yesterday was a dog day. We drove to Ware and from there walked along the river to Hertford. It was great weather but people must be on holiday because the park, so often heaving with people, was more or less empty. That meant at least that we could let Scamp and Pip off the lead without fear of them running off with some poor family's picnic.
The evening was dedicated to movies. Alas we started with the best of the night - Kung Fu Panda - and although the rest were good, nothing quite managed the charm and fast paced wit of that cartoon. A true classic - one for the adults as much as the kids.
Today we decided to have a day with more people and less dogs so we went to Greenwich. As we walked on the Thames Path I remembered that Sarah lived nearby and sent her a text suggesting we meet up. We had a walk around the park and then a drink in a nearby pub (another one Harriet can tick off her list as she visits nearly every pub in this country).
It's been a relaxing and welcome weekend.
