An autumn walk in #haileywood #cotswolds. Found enough #ediblemushrooms to make a #risotto when home. The #fungi in the pictures aren’t edible. Really pleased to find a rounded #earthstar though #foraging #fungi #autumncolours #60thbirthdaycelebrations

What a lovely big #birthday. A country house hotel in the #Cotswolds with beautiful gardens & superb food. Relaxing by the fire & wander around #Bibury. A steam, sauna & dip in the hydrotherapy pool & massage before cocktails & dinner. Thank you H #60thbirrhdaycelebrations

Nothing beats a #homemade #steakandalepie in a pub @the_village_pub #Barnsley A walk around the gardens at the @the_pig_hotels #Cotswolds & dip in the #hydrotherapypool plus #steam & #sauna. The whole roasted #trout from @biburytroutfarm was just perfect #60thbirthdaycelebrations

Using the #fruitpicker was a challenge for the #reception children @ColfesSchool #forestschool. Lots of #teamwork #grossmotorskills & #coordination to pick our #apples & #pears We all got to try them at the end & I’m sure the #slug enjoyed the leftovers. #outdoorskills #orchard
