Clapham

Not Clapham in London but Clapham in West Sussex. I wanted a quiet village with a church and a cafe,  to take mother out. She was refusing to go anywhere with lots of children so our normal lunch spot on the beach was out of the question on a bank holiday Friday.  I went for a longer walk to admire the bluebells,   leaving Mother happily sitting on the stile in the sun.  It was very peaceful. The Junction tea rooms were very pleased to see us. Not a child in sight.
