bluekarin Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/ Go to the site and print a downloadable voucher which entitles you to a free day out at a National Trust place (some are exempt, there is a list of those taking part). The weather is looking much better for tomorrow round here, so as long as my hubby is better we shall be off to Stourhead for our afternoon walk. I've never been, but so many family and friends have said how wonderful it is that I've wantd to go for ages Anyway, thought some of you may like it.

Looney Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 We had a wander around Wicken Fen today. It was really quiet, think the weather put people off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 We went to Wimpole Hall and farm yesterday. It was lovely especially the servants' rooms in the basement which are always my favourite bits. In the hatchery there were three tiny chicks in a heaty thing which were Light Sussex. It was nice to look at them and know what they would grow into. Bossy madams! For you veggie growers out there, it has a massive walled garden and sometime later in the year they're holding a smallholders day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Ooh, Wimpole is next on our list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Wimpole is next on our list A chap at Wimpole told us that the parterre has been planted with 10,000 bulbs, but they're later than usual. It should look spectacular when they bloom, I don't know if you can check before you go but it might be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I think the offer has expired Hazel, and been taken off the page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
