It’s Monday and October 1st. By the time the old folks get up Reece has
already departed and Samantha has already cleared the chaos that was the
kitchen after yesterday. The payback for
that chore was my preparing breakfast, but as far as I was concerned that was a
small price to pay.
We then took a bit of a drive round the area re-acquainting
ourselves with the villages and the town of Northampton. In essence I just pointed the car and then
about half an hour in the Wharf magnet got us and we headed to Bugbrooke and
Marcus.
It was another warm day with
plenty of sunshine so we were able to enjoy the beer garden. Prior to that and led shamelessly by Kim,
there was a raid on Marcus’s accommodation.
To say he was caught by surprise was an understatement.
Marcus joined us and again we chewed loads of fat….
Jet Lag finally nailed Kim and we needed to change plans and
route via Perkins Lodge Farm before heading into Northampton to collect Alexa
from School. What followed was a time
challenge and further change of plans as it fast became apparent that we would
have to head en masse to Northampton for Alexa.
The next hour and a half was me becoming ‘very busy urban
driving’ savvy, finally making the round trip to the Farm and back to Samantha’s
home in East Hunsbury for fish and chips with Alan and Alexa.
Last phase of the day was a return yet again to the Coach
House and some more sleep time. The next
day would involve an earlier start with Golf planned with both Reece and Marcus
at Delapre Golf Club.
At this point it is worth mentioning that the beds here in
the Coach house are so comfortable. Slumber
beckons so see you again tomorrow.
