Well its been a while since I joined in with Janey’s
and Louisa’s
#photoanhour challenge. This Saturday just gone was their chosen day.I posted a photo of what I was doing on the hour every hour ,along with a few other folk on Instagram. Fancy seeing 12 or so random pics of my day………
8am. Breakfast today was a black coffee and a yogurt.
9am.Out with Hugo.We are in the grounds of Clitheroe Castle. Amazingly we had the keep to ourselves for a bit. Then bumped into a personal trainer working her client really hard.Although she (the client) begged us to rescue her,think she was joking.I hope.;)
10am. Looking for a Birthday present for my soon to be 6 year old niece.Finally decided on this butterfly dress,a book of childrens classics ( she is an amazing reader!) and another butterfly inspired gift.
11am. No shopping trip is complete without tea and cake ,especially from my home towns Alice inspired Vintage Tea Room ‘Callooh! Callay’. I like to come here for a Raspberry Almond slice and a pot of ‘Were All Mad Here’ fruit tea. All served in mismatched vintage china.:)
Noon. Checking the jungle of nasturtiums in my back yard for flowers. Found one! 🙂
1pm. I’m out with Hugo again,this time down the fields. My other half is working until five,but a few games of ‘chasing stones’ in the brook ,stops Hugo missing him.:)
2pm. Oh heck I’m at ‘Bowland Beer Hall in Holmes Mill ‘ yet again! Met a couple of friends for a quick lunch.This place is to handy as it is incredibly local to where I live. Here’s my fish finger butty.
3pm. Spending more time in the back yard with the pets ,before I go babysittin g for a friend.
4pm. Walking up to said friends house. I’m stopping over so packed a bag.
5pm.Took my charges up the Castle. We are checking out the view from the Keep. Clitheroe Castle is said to be the second smallest castle keep in England. We still get a good view from the top though.:)
6pm. Wil joined us up the Castle, then we took the boys to the park. Much fun was had on the swings,slide and roundabout.:)
7pm.Pizza in oven and train track built!
8pm. Goosebumps dvd presently being watched. The boys have conned me into getting some sweeties out of the cupboard. 😉
10pm.Two Hours later and kids in bed.Time to relax,put my feet up and enjoy a glass of wine.This babysitting lark is sooo exhausting!
sunshine and celandines 
Love the mismatched china, and I kind of wish that butterfly dress was in adult size! Looks like you had a lovely day.
I do think tea and cake is best served in mismatched china.:) X 🙂
That butterfly dress is gorgeous! Lucky niece 🙂
She’s a big butterfly fan so hopefully she will like it.:)
What a busy, but lovely day! Lovely pic of Hugo. And a brio trainset – I’d forgotten about those 🙂
Hugo is a handsome chappie……as is Mr Hicks.:)
Loved the photos of the castle – brings back fab memories!!! Your fish finger butty and cake looked pretty special too! 🙂
Thanks.Seriously though, I enjoy my food to much. Clitheroe does good grub!
