UK impromptu gathering! Last night I had a phone call from "workbecky" (Becky from Texas). She is currently visiting her daughter in Suffolk. We had a nice chat worked things out so that she and her husband could drive up to Lincolnshire today. The came to my house where Scottie joined us for some lunch. After lunch I took Becky and her Husband to Gainsborough Old Hall, our medieval manor house and after a whistle stop tour of the building Gill Emmerson managed to meet us for a chat in the tearoom. Becky and Kenneth have just set off back to play with their grandchildren before bedtime!

First picture, me Scottie and Becky. Second picture me Gill and Becky. Third picture Becky and Kenneth in the medieval kitchen.
Not bad eh? Especially in the time allowed!

Dear Sue, how amazing is that, to be joined by friends that we have met on this forum. I was blown away by meeting Christie last year in Germany and one day hope to visit some others in America and England. I'll have to start saving now I reckon!!!!!! It is so wonderful that you took the time out of your busy schedule to give them lunch and take them on a tour, well done to you. Love Chris, Newcastle, Australia.

My husband and I had a delightful time. We were telling my daughter and granddaughters some of the stories Sue and Scottie told and the stories of the Old Manor House. Sue was a fantastic tour guide. She gave us a much quicker way to return to our daughters than the GPS device. Becky M in Texas
PS Sue, my daughter wants to know if you give baking lessons as we told her of the delicious lunch. Scottie, I would like your scone recipe.
