A hectic couple of days for The Story Traveller (nothing to do with storytelling!) We had a super couple of days with our Bishop’s Cleeve family and seeing in the New Year with them. My two grandsons Owen and Robin are great fun to be with – Owen is 4 and directs us into some very idiosyncratic imaginary games!

After helping them over breakfast we dashed back to Frampton so I could go off to football. Despite a good performance by the Mighty Hatters we were unable to convert our chances so fell to a sucker punch late on. Beginning to worry now!

A beautiful frosty day and had an enjoyable walk with Jake the Jack Russell we are looking after for a day or so.

Off to play a quiz match later.
