Apple time again

Friday9th October 2009 and we were off to one of our favourite CL sites. We go to this site every October  as the farmer lets us help ourselves to the bramley apples in the orchard. They wasn’t as good this year but we have enough to freeze and see us through the winter.

When we left home the weather was quite pleasant We arrived on site around 1pm and as we started to fill up with water  the rain started    typical. 

My cousin was already there so we had a brew and a good chat to catch up with the news as we hadn't seen them for almost a month. The rain finally stopped but it was quite cold.

This site has no facilities only a water tap and an elsan point but it has the most wonderful views,  wild bird life,  and horses in the fields what more can one ask for for £5.00 a night.

Woke to a beautiful warm and sunny day.

Some views of the site we were above the mist rising as you can see in the photos

Sunday 11 October 2009

Sunday it was a cloudy dull day and time to pack up and head for home

We did check the ewes  but there was no red dye on them.

He must have enjoyed the apples or just plain lazy

Looking forward to the next  trip but haven’t decided on when or where at the moment but soon
