365/156 Colourful

This is just lovely.. following on from yesterday's prompt, my cousin Sarah who reads the blog sent me this picture.. for sure the better viewpoint of 'White Gate'...and she wrote..

Love it, how bad is that - we get excited over a "gate". My memories of the gate, every Easter Sunday Grandad Ted would man the gate when the gardens are open for St. Levan Church funds. He would chat to people as they walked down cove and then back up again for a cream tea...

(her Grandad Ted was my Dad's best man and best friend, they joined the Navy together, despite both of them having valid reasons not to... and used to go courting together with Mum & Val... who worked together in town)

Cheating somewhat for the prompt today, but these colourful fruits at a stall we passed in Paris a few years back made me think about all the lovely foods on offer at the moment with the Jubilee parties going on.. mmm, I love raspberries..

JB has made Colin a cake this afternoon for his birthday tomorrow.. ahh, and the Queen gave us a day extra to celebrate!

I am hoping that 'Anonymous' has stopped stalking me with his Spam now, but may have to put verification back on if it comes back.. I just can't buy any more over the counter drugs or Louis V handbags girls!! ;-)
