London and Home

Saturday, William and Gavin took us to the Essex Agricultural Show. I held an owl, saw work horses, donkeys, flower displays, fruit, vegetables, and all the variety of things one sees at an Agricultural fair. There was even an antique car exhibit that William and Roger enjoyed.

Later, we took a train up to London where we spent two nights with Larry and Lorraine Shearer and their two sons, Sam and Tom. We went to the Victoria and Albert Museum on Sunday, had some great Indian take-away, and watched the final game in the World Cup.

Monday it was time to leave. We had an uneventful flight home, were picked up by Austin Limo, that was really a treat to come home in style. The best part of the whole trip was coming home to find that while we were gone our children had totally redone the living room!!! Freshly painted walls, professionally finished floor, new bookcase, sofas, a new rug on the floor and curtains on the windows. Oh, were we ever happy! No one has children has wonderful as ours are!!!
