Is basically what my weekend consisted of.
On Saturday we all left the Rancho Collapso and piled into Mrs F's other car and went a charging off in the direction of Glastonbury. Shipscook was on navigation duties (ahem) I was on nodding off duty and Sarah was on Nintendo DS duty.
The weather started out bright and sunny and then turned all manner of yuck. We had a stop off for refreshments and historical archeomalogical doings in Avebury, and due to the appalling windy and wet weather we decided that getting blown off the top of Glastonbury Tor was not going to be on the cards so we should head straight to Bath. Which we did.
It was there that I had to buy a new outdoorsy waterproof coat type thing, as my old one was still hanging on the banisters at the bottom of the stairs at Rancho collapso.


Then we did the pump room, vair posh - for coffee and second breakfast for certain hobbit types and some glasses of very smelly Spring water. We even had a piano accompaniment.
After that a bit more shopping then down into the subterranean wonder of the Raj Poot curry house. Oh man. Just go, its great - the food rocks.
Saturday and British summer time kicks in like someone had flicked a switch - great weather!
So off and up early to Glastonbury, and into the chalice well gardens just as they opened. Sarah got her bottle of spring water that she collected herself from the Lions head outlet, and we showed her around the Garden and took her to the well itself. It is just so relaxing there. I love it, so does Sarah.
Then into the town where I was forced at almost gun point into a cafe called "THE 100 MONKEYS" yes me, in a place called that. But it was good, great local beers and ciders and very good food. I even drank one called "Love Monkey", under protest mind.
And then a Walk round the ruins in the Abbey Garden, then home.
A busy weekend but it was fun.
And now your all bored I will bugger of but leave you with a warning.
Oh yes, there will be piccies later so be warned. More boredom ahead for you lot.
