Stafford
Thursday 1st October 2015
As Tony has an appointment with the specialist to decide on the next move with regard to his troublesome toe Marg, Gail and I drive the short distance over to the National Arboretum which over an area of 150 acres is a magnificent memorial to the many who have died in the various wars.
Women are not forgotten
Although not strictly related to war the area set aside for infant deaths is particularly poignant and thought-provoking.
Leaves are in memory of children
We spend close to two hours walking round the whole park before having a quick snack in the cafeteria.
As his her wont Gail goes out of her way to let the people in the cafe know that if the baguettes are not available with the roast beef it needs to be taken off the menu board and replaced with ‘ bread roll’ !
We watch Wales make hard work of beating Fiji ( 23-13) and after our last dinner with T and M for this trip we turn in at a relatively civilised hour.
Cheers
The Obese Ferret.
