The year started with Steve entering the third age.  So now he has more time for gardening.  The first job was to hire a guy to come around and cut down a few trees. Now have time to visit National Trust houses, the first being  Greys Court, then Nuffield Place the house of William Morris the car manufacturer. In May we had a weekend away in Wales with the Cambridge Society.
