May Musings On A Friday

~ beetleypete

Change of day this week, as I won’t be around on the blog from Friday evening until Tuesday next week. (Possibly Monday, not sure yet) So I will not be reading or commenting on your posts, and not posting anything at all on my blog.

—————————————————————————————

The heavy rain this week has caused some localised flooding. Beetley Meadows was flooded all along the riverbank path and up to (and under) the nearby seating and benches. I had a very damp walk on Thursday as a result, but at least it wasn’t raining when I was outside.

On Wednesday evening we had a break from cooking and drove to a local pub to eat. Darby’s is in the larger village of Swanton Morley, just under three miles east. We had been there quite a few times in the past, but changes of ownership also changed the food on offer, so we stopped going. Then Julie found out it was once again under new owners, so we gave it a try. And we were glad we did. The food was first-class, We both chose the pork belly main course, and were exceptionally pleased with the quality and portion sizes. If you are ever in the area, you should try it. Booking might be essential at weekends though. It dates from 1988, when the current building was converted from two 18th century cottages, and tastefully decorated in a traditional style. https://darbys-pub.co.uk/

I will let you next week know where I have been over the weekend. I hope you all have a peaceful and enjoyable time during my absence.

  7. You almost sound like my grandson when his phone dies. You’ll survive the time off. Enjoy a day or three away from the computer cubby! I’ll never understand how they give pork parts the most unappetizing names….

  9. (1) So you’ll be away from your blog? Coincidentally, I’ve been away from your blog for a couple of days now due to a backache and bellyache, which, after sleeping for hours on end, have finally gone away. So now that I’m ready for your blog, your blog will not be ready for me!
    (2) Please scoop up a few buckets of water and sent them to Southern Nevada. We need every drop of water we can get!
    (3) Darby, you say? Does the food contain True Grit?
    (4) Hopefully, I’ll write some song lyrics over the weekend.
