Last weekend was extremely busy as Stephen and I travelled to Hertfordshire. We stayed with his mum .On Saturday we went to see The Levellers at Bedford Corn Exchange which was brilliant. We have seen them countless times and will again no doubt.

On Sunday we went for a long walk around the Knebworth area. Photo is of Knebworth House now more famous worldwide for its rock concerts . It was also the home of Victorian novelist Edward Bulwer Lytton - author of the words "The pen is mightier than the sword".When I worked in Hertfordshire I used to take children on visits frequently but I've never been to a concert there.

On Monday we travelled into London for a meal and to see Les Miserables. Wow it was amazing. If you are planning a visit to London you should put it on your 'must do' list.

Back home now contemplating sowing some seeds and perhaps painting the kitchen walls. The latter I've been planning to do since Christmas but still haven't taken the lid off the tin yet. The sun is coming out as I write this. Its great to see some blue sky at last.Perhaps I'll potter around in the garden instead. Instead of painting that is!
