Christmas 2011
Burghley House, Stamford (September 2011)
 |
| In September, Ben and I visited Burghley House, near Stamford. The House was built by William Cecil, the first Lord Burghley (1520-1598), Lord High Treasurer and Chief Minister to Queen Elizabeth I. We walked from the station through the Park to the House. |

| Various sculptures are dotted around the gardens |
 |
| Look carefully in the foliage |

Suffolk, and a visit to an old friend
 |
 |
| We paid a surprise visit to Aldringham to visit Kate, a friend from school days. The last time we visited was in 1972! Now Kate has 4 grandchildren who love the zip wire in the garden! |
Garden renovation
 |
| The joists of the decking paths had begun to rot so we replaced them with pavers. Richard did the timber edges, and I laid the bricks. |
