Back to reality
Finally we are getting back to reality at Chateau Larcombe. Although spending most of the week winding down along side a gentle detox, I've been up on the roof, fixing tiles. We're still desperately seeking the correct belt for the lawnmower which broke 2 weeks before the party and next week I will hopefully push on with the new shower room. (subject to the shower tray being sorted)
After a week of collecting bottle tops and ciggarette ends from the lawn, there are no tell tale signs of last weekends festivities. I have to question how we can improve things for next year. Mowing the softball diamond would have saved us from losing 6 balls. Ordering sun for the duration of the event may have resulted in some top less bathing, and the installation of a plunge pool or pond for the skinny dipping. Accomodating everyone on site would have seen the wine racks empty and the yard of ale competiton would have got off the ground.
Anyhow, no rest for the wicked as works for next year are well under way already. Dates to be announced soon. Please please please upload your photos to snapfish, we already have 160 but would like more.

well, having been so used to Jane writing the blog I had to work out that she was not on the roof, fixing a lawn mower or building a new shower room. Glad you are all well. xxx
Actually, I was out watching Josh dancing at his school, a parent accompanier!!!!!! Something like that anyway!!
well i feel that probably makes more sense. The idea of you on the roof and andrew dancing should be short lived and not pondered on!!! xx
Well it sounds like you have another busy week ahead of you with lots of things to mind and do as usual.
Take care and keep up the good work
Love Julie
xxxx
that should be mend, sorry!!!
