WLCG Gill's Tea in the Teepee

Gill had a "gathering" ..... definitely not a party..... at the weekend for friends who have known Emma most of her life, and to celebrate her recent wedding. What a great excuse to erect a Teepee in the garden! So today, she invited the WLCG round for tea and cake. Thank you Gill. Sadly Emma & Josh no longer there, but hope to meet them one day. Gill also mentioned the pool was open if anyone fancied a swim?

A minor detail was that we didn't actually sit in the Teepee, but on the patio, which was more comfortable for Gill's parents John and Pat. (2nd meeting in a week, and so another blog appearance.😂)

Looks great. Very "Harry Potterish sorting hat" shape, as someone said. 

Geums planted last week for an extra splash of colour

This border looking lovely with  blue Iris Siberica and Allium Christophii

Astrantia looking good too. I think could be variety "Roma".

Gill's Mum Pat was working on some Christmas decorations when we arrived. A very
talents lady. 

Lynne arrived later with Harvey on their new tandem 

Nice substantial looking bike.

Lynne and Harvey had brought their costumes. 
(The water about 20degrees, but a cool wind blowing today!)

C'mon Harvey! Get it!!

A bit of encouragement needed. 

And he's almost in. 

And once he got in, he never got out again!

A lovely couple of hours relaxing, and nice to chat with your family again. Thank you Gill. Lovely Lemon cake 😋. Not an official ride, but about 8 mile round trip. It all counts!
