During the second week of May I had a week of work.
It was quite a busy week with lots to do, but I still enjoyed it.
On the Monday my husband and me went to Blyth to see the harbour master about a mooring for my husband's boat. I'm pleased to say it's pretty much all sorted apart from paying the bill. It had been a bit of a stressful weekend so after we had a meal in the town's Wetherspoons. It was a nice meal in great surroundings, as it's in the town's old cinema, and they've done a lovely job with it.
On the Tuesday I caught up with some gardening. Gardening is something I enjoy even if I'm not that good at it. There's something satisfying about nurturing plants and watching them give you food back.
The Wednesday was taking over by my husband's hospital appointment. As he's having an operation to remove his nasal polyps, we're just waiting for a date. In the evening we went to the monthly car show at the Metro Centre in Gateshead. I say car show it's actually an impromptu get together every second Wednesday evening of the month. We only go in the summer months as you get some great classic cars showing up there, as well as American muscle cars and boy racer ones.
This little Fiat 500, was my favourite.
The Thursday was another day spent in the house catching up with jobs. The chicken is one which wanders out of it's home in the neighbours chicken coop to eat the seed which the birds drop from our feeder. We find the odd egg from her as well.
On the Friday, my dad and me went to Warkworth Castle, which is about half an hour from where I live in Northumberland. It's a ruin managed by English Heritage. We both really enjoyed it, and spent a few hours there happily exploring and taking photos.
Finally on the Saturday I was coming back from shopping with my husband and he stopped so I could take this photo. I quite like it as I think it's quite an English scene.
