The house hunting is dragging on. We are looking at two places, the one in the area we like has been on the market for over 5 weeks now, the only problem being the owner is dragging his feet moving out and now doesn't want to go till early January. If we wait the danger is that he may change his mind again and stay longer. The other place is very nice but not quite the area we want to be in.
In between viewing properties we have been checking out the surrounding villages ...
We visited Prestbury, which is prime Cheshire multi million dollar property area, and is a favourite spot for premier league footballers.
The houses are mind blowing but the centre is a bit run down and tatty looking.
This shop was interesting though ...
We also discovered some amazing carvings on some tree stumps ...
On Saturday morning we decided we would head down to Milton Keynes, to see my mother, plus my niece Kimberley was taking part in a show jumping event on Sunday.
Off we went down the M. It is always a worry when you see a big truck heading straight towards you!
Bombo was the back seat driver ...
Today (Sunday) was the horsey event.
My niece, Kimberley's horse - Neeko - is a lovely boy ...
We had a little cheer squad - Elaine, me, my mother, brother and sis in law ...
Here is the superstar chillin before the big event ...
Niece Kimberley and my mother ...
Yours truly, all wrapped up against the elements 'cos it was freezing!
Neeko about to eat Sammie (not really, this is what happens when you let El loose with the camera) ...
Elaine taking a selfie with Neeko ...
... and then standing like a horse!
Kimberley and Neeko in action ...
Kimberley and Neeko came 1st with a clear round and no faults ...
Well done you two xx
After a great win Neeko rested his head on Elaine ...
It was a lovely family day out, but after standing around for a few hours we were freezing!!
It took us a good couple of hours to defrost.
