intermission - normal service will be resumed shortly

Well it's taken a while but Penny, Mena and Neil actually escaped (yes we know it is a bit of a surprise but we ran out of excuses!)for a few days last week down to the New forest for a healthy dollop of R&R, at the Master Builders in Bucklers Hard, and what a stroke of luck the sunniest days of the year to date!

Not to bore you, but it is traditional, you know, to tell everyone how it all went, from a relaxing drink after a fine BBQ in these picturesque gardens;



to soul enriching walks along the beach



inspirational encounters with greatness;



peace and tranquillity on the river bank (looks more like safari territory don't you think)



high-jinks with the old gaffers (boats that is, before you get the wrong idea)



to dreaming of what might be...



Thank you to all the scotcheggers team for keeping things running along as we swanned off, we really appreciated the change of routine makes me think we may not need to wait a further 6 years 'till we can head off again....

STOP PRESS:
Lotto and family have chosen to name their beautiful foal SMOKIE JOE, although now he has a little sister too so watch out for some more cuddly pictures soon

right them, holidays over back to it, see you around

Unless I am very much mistaken that t-shirt Niel is wearing is of the long lost variety of Mac's - last seen leaving NZ in secure packaging - glad it is enjoying an outing in that beautiful English countryside!
