A surprise visit by our former Matron of Dishonour was a perfect excuse to visit Kettlewell for the annual Scarecrow Festival and lunch at the Blue Bell. Marie's return visit somewhat delayed as she is such a busy women supporting the Labour Party and Unison retired members in Fife, cut short as she is attending Alex Falconer's (former MEP for Mid-Scotland and Fife) funeral on Tuesday, but crammed a lot in. Arrived last Friday in time for the committee meeting in the Game Cock which became welcome back to Austwick. Skipton market on Saturday with us popping in to "Art in the Pen" at the cattle market. How many folk take a long term vegetarian to the local meat market? We had not seen Marie since leaving Kirkcaldy on 4th october 2010 and Marie had not visited us in Austwick since the previous April, so her returned visit meant we had a lot of catching up to do. As the Scot's say "haste ye back"> From this to what?
Very post war baby!
