I do love a shorn Alpaca. Adorable though they are in full fleece, you realise just how small but athletic they are when shorn..

Some of our followers will realise that in order to expand your knowledge, you actually have to travel. Funnily enough I have never been to Stroud or any of the little villages around it. the Daneway en route to Miserden serves fabulous coffee as Mum found out and the pub in Miserden is as quaint as the village..

Well you have to try all the Water Park restaurants with your Mum do you not?  Have to recommend Spring Lake with its Lakeside Brasserie. Never had a bad meal there ever but very busy!

If you fancy water ski or wakeboarding or just fun or just watching!

What better way to welcome June in the Cotswolds than lunch at the Waterparks with Mum! Not so sure about the finger food but the brie baguette was fab and plenty to do if you want the water sports!
