Spent two nights staying with my mum’s cousin Anna, in the heart of Yorkshire, Anna and her husband Chris have a farm in the village of Brandesburton, near Driffield and Beverley. We had a lovely time staying with them in their big old farmhouse, visiting the people and the country where my granny grew up, seeing the hounds of the Holderness Hunt (of which Chris is Huntmaster), visiting the beautiful country manor of Burton Agnes, and seeing the memorial to the bomber crews that flew out of this region during the second world war. The English summer has returned to its true form after our sunny spell of weather in Ashwell, and it rained fairly continuously while we were here. Lucky we bought wet weather gear!
