Small world indeed
It is indeed a small world Bob . The musket holes in the wall were the Oliver Cromwells Puritans target practicing I believe. The holes in the doors were the places they pushed their muskets throughin order to fire at the advancing Cavaliers . . Across the river in the opposite church in Farndon they stabled their horses before advancing on the Parliamentarians in Wales . A case of the river dividing the families who before the Civil War probably got on very well . There is a window in Farndon- one of very few that depict the Cavaliers who billeted themselves in the church . I have not heard of the children dressing in the green but to be honest a lot of our customs such as well dressing are pagan in origin so I guess this was a practical event but also served both the Christian and the harking back to Paganism and the Druids.

correcting what you read
I was going to dismiss this as spam but decided to read it . Don't bother correcting the way I write my blogs . I am not writing a blog for a dissertation . I write them because I enjoy writing and at least I don't use of instead of have which offends greatly . I suppose I have to be grateful that you read the blog however please don't act like a teacher correcting the way we speak here .

It is strange that an American and a Canadian both actors have actually taken our city /town - we will always call it a town to heart Their mission statement said they wanted to bring a belief to the place .

Arrived yesterday and we had a dreadful storm . Heavy rain almost monsoon like and thunder and lightening . Today is totally different . Just walked into Cogolin and it was really hot on the way back .

Thankyou

holidays
We have been down on this part of Med before but could not park in some places due to the van being too big and awkward to find spaces. We have found a lovely place to stay inland . Hopefully will visit Frejus, St Tropez and a few places around Nice . We only have a week there so it will not be the same as travelling for a month . I would love to see Pennsylvania . I have always fancied the east coast travelling down to the Civil War sites . Maybe one day and would like to visit an elderly relative in St Louis . We missed her in 2010 when we came to the States. It will be easier for you now but you will miss Bonnie . We have a friend coming to look after the cat whilst we are away . Not sure what other plans we have for this year . Glenn is hoping to try to get his gun licence back . He got to the point of applying before we moved to Wales however with Covid it got put on hold. He is having to do his probation again and that likely wont start until September . It might ruin any chance of a late holiday . Eastern Europe will be lovely in September . Hope everything goes to plan for you .
