Visit to Hatfield House

Thursday 22nd July 2010

Today Gina and I visited Hatfield House, Hertfordshire. We took the opportunity of a reasonably sunny day, to walk around both the west and east gardens, before viewing the world famous home itself. (This was where way back in 1558, Queen Elizabeth I was given the news that she had inherited the throne of England). After a spot of outdoor lunch at the restaurant, we also went for a 15 minute ride on a horse (called Josh) and carriage around part of the estate.

Uncle Lou – In Memorium

Monday 21st July 2010

It is with much sadness and deep regret, that I report the passing away late last evening our dearly beloved uncle Louis (Lou) Lee. He had suffered for a number of years from bad health, but never let it get him down. He will always remain a great inspiration to us all, and will be really missed by all those who had the honour and privilege of knowing him.
