Berry Lane, Longridge. by happypat

Berry Lane, Longridge.

The main street in the small town of Longridge. It’s on the side of the fell so this street is quite hilly.
It was the annual sports & festival day yesterday so all the flags were flying. Very unfortunate as it was terrible weather but today it’s lovely, such a shame.
My kids all went to high school here & Cathy works at the Foot Room two days a week here. Our DIL was also a practice nurse here before they emigrated to NZ.

We have been to a large garden centre neat Clitheroe looking at kitchens, furniture etc. A very nice meal too.

Three good things:
1. No cooking tonight.
2. Lovely thank you flowers from NZ.
3. I stayed in bed until 9am finishing my brilliant book this morning!

No cooking is THE BEST!

@dide It was bliss Dianne but rushed it in the end because I felt a bit guilty! Silly!

@gijsje I like others doing the cooking...only time Harry cooks is when we have bbq...I’m fed up with cooking so always glad when I get to eat out!

So many small towns around! Must be nice to choose one to visit for a coffee or a specialty shop!
We stay in bed till well after 9am, Pat - me looking at 365 and John playing some game on his iPad! No guilt though I must admit answering the door in your dressing gown at 10.30 is a bit over the top!

@maggiemae Ha ha yes it takes a bit of guts to do that maggie but who cares specially in winter. I think it’s just a farming thing on my part....so used to getting up early plus Harry is a very early riser so it’s half his day gone by the time I get downstairs on occasions! I am learning to do exactly as I want during the day though, if I want to read my book all day I do!

@phil_howcroft Yes it’s very familiar but we have moved away from that area now...takes us about 30 mins to reach Longridge now.

Sweet sunny day. What’s the book that you liked so much?
June 10th, 2019  
Nice street scene. Always great to have someone else cook (if they are a good cook). Once I get started into a book, I hate to put it down.

Looks a lovely little town. Pity about the weather.

A lovely street scene
