Grumpy Old Man

By Maurice1948

Out in the country

Today I went out for the day with my brother and his son. We drove down into Surrey, to visit the Lovelace bridges at East Horsley. These were built by Lord Lovelace in the 1860s to carry out timber from his forests. 

Then followed lunch at the Duke of Wellington, a pub in East Horsley and my Blip today. The next stop was for a walk along the Wey and Arun canal near the aerodrome at Dunsfold. 

Back to civilisation and a visit to my brother's other son's family, then back to my sister's. Five minutes later we were off to the White Hart pub in Hampton Wick to have a meal with my 'Australian' brother, his wife, his daughter and her boyfriend. A good evening was had by all, now a quick Blip and off to bed!
