Left Truleigh after a great Big English breakfast cooked by
the two women staff this morning. Sitting looking out across the hillside I
suddenly noticed the rabbits, dozens of them in the paddock about 50 metres
away, seems to be a common sight and no one but New Zealanders comment.
Still raining and headed to a National Trust site, Petworth House which is still a private home, didn’t spend much time outdoors but inspected
the kitchens which were separated from main house by a 50 metre underground
servants tunnel.
Ate our left over lunch in the car as so wet. Intended to
visit another NT site plus the Branksome factory at Fordingbridge but so wet
and driving so difficult just headed to Bournemouth to a very warm welcome from
Siobhan and Toddy. Toddy’s cuz Marcus and partner also staying there. Pleasant
evening spent by all over magnificent roast lamb dinner with free flowing wine
and plenty of talk.
