Morning all its nearly 4.30am and yep i am not sleeping very well while on my holiday. My back pain feels off the scale this week. It was a hard trip up here and i have been in pain ever since. Four o'clock is the longest i have been in bed. My index fingers are very sore and my ankles are not feeling very good either.
Any way yesterday we went to Alnwick gardens and the sun decided to shine on us and we had a lovely day. Loads of photos.This one is of the castle and all the daffodils,hubby has said he has never seen so many daffs as we have seen this holiday and this place has thousands of them in different shades of yellow. This has to be one of my fave places to visit. On Tuesday we went to Cragside castle now that is something else altogether. Sadly i lost all the photos i had taken,my friend from home has said he could recover them from my sd card so i have swapped over my cards. I live in hope,but if you ever have a chance to visit this place it is a must see place. If not Secrets of the national trust did a programme on it so you could look it up and it is worth a watch.
Today we are spending it close to home as they say. Our friend is coming over from Newcastle for the day. He is a old Army friend of my hubby they spent a lot of time together for many years so he is coming to Whitley bay. So while they sit chatting it gives me a chance to trawl round the shops for gifts for my family.xxxxx
