Day 10. Tuesday, 5^th June, 2007.

Today we drove to Alresworth to visit the shop of Long Barn Lavender Oil company. Zena lent us her Tomtom GPS gadget which was a great help. The shop was quite small but Mum did find something of interest and bought 2 bags of Lavender. We had a coffee and cake in a tea room and then drove to Langtrees Farm to pick up some clothes and spices etc (brought from Oz) and took Ean to The Red Rover for a pub lunch. Then back to Hythe, in theory to catch the tail end of the market, but we were too late, so did a little shopping for fruit in the shopping mall. Back to 9 Linwood Close. Rosemary made some Indian Dahl, and struggled a bit to get the balance right, presumably because the lentils etc were from different sources of supply to those that we normally use. Rosemary also made a fruit salad. John made a fish curry, with another couple of options, so we had an Indian meal. Dahl, followed by curry!

Rosemary is getting over her jet lag, was quite busy during the day, didn’t have a nap, but couldn’t quite last to 9pm. And so to bed.
