Tuesday 7th, 15th , 22nd 29th September.

It is unfortunate that I am no 'techi' and that I have no interest in becoming so when it comes to computers! I have been committed (and many say I should be) to keeping you up to date with the happenings at Shrublands and religiously writing the blog for 9 months (longer actually as it is now the Middle of October) but have never 'posted' my own prattlings on line - I have to wait for Graham to do it, sometimes it's only days and as in this case it is 6 weeks. For the last two weeks I have not been able to find my blog file (on the computer) to up-date the blog, but it is only today that Graham tells me the file and all my writing since the 7th September has been lost. He may be slow in posting my work but is quite a clever dick when it comes to computers (well, it was his job for a great many years!) and he assures me it is un-retrievable. It is not anywhere to be found, not even in the 9,000 files dumped somewhere in the annuls of time. The computer is getting old and keeps having glitches and it has somehow lost or re-named the file never to be found.

I do not intend to re-write Septembers blogs as A. I cannot remember what happen or what I wrote (apart from a scathing review of the National Trusts Restaurant & Garden at Fellbrig Hall and we went on a four day break) and B. Just don't have the time or inclination! But here are some pictures and 'highlights of the month.
