SERENDIPITY 2
Our June meeting found us returning to Castle Hill House. We had been
determined to return there after our visit a year ago when the day had
been wall-to-wall torrential rain. Despite this, we had enjoyed our day
and had been impressed by the gardens and wanted to see them on a
sunnier day. We were not disappointed and the weather was glorious. We
had lunch at the nearby Stag Inn beside the lake and then proceeded to
the House.
This visit we climbed to the castle behind the house and our efforts
were rewarded with spectacular views. Black and white pictures do not
do this justice, but they do give you some idea.
At our next meeting, we will be dows-ing again, this time at Penhallam Manor.
As mentioned in my last report, we went dowsing at Penhallam Manor in
July. The day had been damp in the morning, but turned out fair for our
trip and Lucille had gone to a great deal of trouble giving us a plan
of the Manor and suggested dowsing tasks. We had an extremely
fascinating afternoon and I feel we could well be returning some time
in the future.
In August, we felt it best not to travel too far as the roads would be
busy with visitors and we decided to have an old fashioned “high tea”.
We all brought a plate, cucumber sandwiches and old-fashioned lemonade
and tea poured from bone china teapots. We decided to dress for the
occasion and even had hats, although these did not stay on for long. In
fact a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon was had by all. The September
meeting was cancelled as I was away and we had a quiet discussion
afternoon in October.
We still have spaces for anyone interested in joining us.
