Dear All,
On Friday Kate and I had a day out visiting Naseby Battlefield and
the nearby Coton Manor Gardens near Kettering. There is not a great deal to see
at Naseby but it was interesting to see the terrain they fought over in what
was a decisive battle in the Civil War. The gardens were well worth visiting
with terraced beds, woods and water.

Thursday’s walk was a circular route around Ely and although largely
familiar we did find some areas we had not seen before.

Red currant picking entered the second week but has finally finished
for this year but raspberries are beginning now and the dwarf cherry tree has
excelled this year.
Otherwise we have been preparing for next Saturday’s carnival,
preparing wickets and generally keeping on top of watering and weeding.
I went to a NIAB “Wrinklies” lunch at Girton on Tuesday watching the
differing rates that people age!
Ben flew to China on Friday for a 17 day visit.
