Eldest and had an impromptu trip out today up over the downs, we were hoping to go to the Sussex Meet yesterday and had our bags packed ready to go, but following a very late night on Friday, as both the boys were playing in various bands (Steel & Brass) at the Pavillion Theatre in Worthing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATuB-TcFZtA, events kind of conspired against us and things didnt go at all to plan on Saturday.
But this morning we figured we would get out in the fresh air, even if it was just for a few hours, so we headed up over the Downs.
Walking up the lane
View over the fields
Up past the small pond
and a general view of where we are headed
with the old flint barn (remains)
Up in the woods now and time for a coffee
and a bit of brekkers, apple pancakes - yum yum
my impromptu pantry/cafe
and my only customer of the day, he wasnt aware i had bought stuff with us to make pancakes for brekkers, so it made for a nice surprise.
but he was aware that we were having bacon butties for lunch
we were only out for a little while, but covered about 5-6 miles, all in all was an enjoyable quick trip, we would have liked to gone to the Sussex meet yesterday, but it wasnt to be, always next time i guess, still at least we got out for a little while i guess.
