York
Coo, meant to update about this last week, but the sunshine's got me wiped out.
So, it turns out we went to see Shawn Smith, not Shaun Smith. It was a really good gig, except that I only know one of his songs and he didn't flippin' do it! It's a lovely song though. Listen to it here.
Before the gig we had a lovely dinner here.
And the following morning we walked along the river and then went to a lavender farm. It's been on my list to do that for a while, but unfortunately the lavender wasn't out yet! It was still lovely though and I had a lavender tea in the cafe, which also served lavender scones with lavender jam and lavender cheesecake and lavender ice-cream with lavender biscuits. (David said if there'd been a suggestion box, he would've said, "Great place, but enough with the lavender!!!)
Then we got home and were greeted with this:

He looks a right pistol (as Grandma would say). But a cute one.


My gran would have said he looks a right bobbydazzler. And she would have been 108 today! Oh blimey!

Would you be insulted if I said Harry was doing a pretty mean Norman Wisdom impression? Personally I love little Norm and would see it as a compliment - but hope I've not offended?!

LOL, Joyce! Yes, that's it! It's the hat on sideways. Not offended at all. I said he looked like Plug from the Beano!
