Noticing a sign advertising a local stately home which was a short drive away and had a restaurant we thought we'd try there, but it was shut! I did get this lovely picture in the gardens though:
So by now we are starting to get very hungry for some lunch. We drove to a farm that takes visitors, but it turned out it would be £28 for us and all it seemed to be was a muddy field with three very fed-up looking donkeys. It certainly didn't look worth the money.
Faint with hunger...LOL...we drove to a nearby town to visit a museum, but we couldn't find any parking. When we did eventually park up we realised that we weren't allowed to park there and the museum was now just a restaurant which we couldn't stay to eat in because we couldn't find anywhere to park legally!
Decidedly fed-up we got back into our car drove around and found an ASDA, bought some snacks and then drove to a shopping centre where we had lunch/tea.
Talk about a waste of a day! :) Better luck next Saturday I hope.

Tim and I used to have days like that - we've been more fortunate since the girls have come along - probably because we try to be more prepared - but I remember those kind of trips.
It's a funny old life, lol. :)
