The Cotswolds

We're still alive, just not blogging at the moment... we will later on. We've deliberately decided to have an easier week this week to recover from the USA and enjoy this lovely house and gorgeous part of the world.

In brief: we're staying at 'Green Cottage' in the village of Great Rissington, in an 18th century stone cottage which has a huge and very pretty garden (complete with an orchard, pond and tame pheasant!)The kitchen has an Aga stove so we are eating very well and I am finding great satisfaction in cooking properly for my family again!

We have visited Blenheim Palace, Warwick Castle and Oxford. On Sunday we went to church with friends from college, Kate & Philip Percival and family to St Ebbe's Oxford - a real highlight for us and our boys.

You'll hear from us again soon!
