Some photos from out trip down to Bedford last month, taking Andree on her birthday to see Ian, Svitlana, William and Chloe. We haven’t seen them for a while, and this was the first time that we met baby niece Chloe.
It was quite a late decision to visit, and so we had Tia with us. Ian and Svitlana’s house, a homely Victorian terrace, is on a quiet cul-de-sac, with a large park at the end, just seconds away from the front door, perfect for the children. We all headed for the park and play area, and then Chantal and I continued with Tia across the river to explore a network of footpaths and cycleways that led to lakeside walk. It was a pleasantly warm day, and we stopped for an ice cream.
We returned to join the others for a barbeque – Ian is taking on the responsibility, bequeathed from Duncan, as family Barbequer-in-Chief, specialising in steak. The warm day had turned chilly, and so we ate in Ian and Svitlana’s cosy dining room.
Chantal did take some photos of Ian, Svitlana and Andree, but appears to have “mislaid” them.
Technically we live in Oaktree House, but sadly the tree had to go.
We now have a thriving Oakstump at the front of the house.
