Looking back at this month, we managed to get out and about quite a bit. Not so much in central London, but a lot of trips that were an hour or less from home. Even better – a lot of these were with friends as well. Some not seen since May 2019.

Some friends in Leicester were away the first weekend of June and offered us a stay at their house. Why not?! Also, recently found out there is a Tim Horton’s in Leicester, so very much why not.

A Friday trip out to RHS Ryde Hall with fellow SE Londoners
