Day 294 & 295  Saturday and Sunday:
 Saturday was busy. We picked Oliver up and took him to see Jayne, Leo and family. He had not seen them since they moved into their new house and we hadn't seen them since before we went away.
It was a great reunion between Amber and Oliver, they played all afternoon, Oliver enjoying a reunion with Ambers toys.
We picked a huge bagful of Bramley Apples from the tree in the garden and brought them home. so it looks like more cooking.
Sunday was quieter and the weather was so nice we went for a walk. We didn't walk as far as I would have loved to have been able to do but it was lovely revisiting some of the old sites.
We went past the allotments where we used to have one and had a walk round to see how things were. When we had one, some of the allotments were very untidy but now everyone is well looked after.

 
Saturday B&W Portrait.
 
My camera was playing up today and the photos were fuzzy so
we took one of Roly and Louises wedding  and turned it to B&W

 
Mum and Dads wedding in 1942 definitely B&W

unfortunately the nuts inside had no kernel in them.
Sorry I should have said Sweet chestnuts
