Continuing to visit the towns and villages of Gloucestershire - Stroud, Purton, Newtown. #VirtualTour

How has Thursday been. Beautifully sunny day here, first wall to wall sunshine day for weeks.

#DailyCheckIn

Lynnsoprano What beautiful pictures! Sunny so far today, but we had 3 inches in our rain gauge after a downpour last evening. Market day today. I used to run to the store whenever I needed something, now I plan and just go once a week. 4y
Andrew65 @Lynnsoprano Yes that is the biggest change, just not popping out to the shop for something. The other big change for us has been not doing take away. Most probably healthier for us though! 4y

TrishB Finished today for just over a week. Had a busy day and just looking forward to a rest now. 4y
Andrew65 @TrishB Enjoy 😊 4y
IamIamIam Lol, I'd love to go cheese rolling! 🤣 Another crappy day... went to clean out the fridge and tossed 4 contractor bags into the trash. I saved a bunch of things in my MIL's fridge and my mom's freezer but the rest of it needed to go. I see that the power outage on the map has been removed or edited by the power company and my block isn't on it... 🙄 so over 2020!!! 4y
Andrew65 @IamIamIam It certainly is a year we could have done without!!! Sending positive thoughts! 🥰 4y
CocoReads Not bad today but I‘m at work for another 2.5 hours and am hoping it stays uneventful. Was 10 minutes late this morning because I was halfway here and realized my badge was still at home. I need to start leaving it in my car or something.... 4y
Andrew65 @CocoReads I do that! (Leave it behind that is). 4y
TheSpineView Nice day today but very humid. I only worked until 2. Then I had to go to the bank, drive thru only, put gas in my car and for a treat I got myself a Starbucks coffee. Yum! Reading a little now but need to stop and start dinner. 4y
kezzlou85 Been a rough couple of days with migraines but finally feeling better. 4y

Many people in the Cotswolds love taking part in what many people would consider #FoolishGames, such as Cheese-rolling (chasing a wheel of Double Gloucester cheese down a very steep hill), or shin-kicking (part of the Cotswold Olympicks)

We‘re a funny bunch.

1. Meeting up with good friends on the weekend.

2. Getting hair, brows and nails done tomorrow (in advance of going away!); on Sunday, weather permitting, I‘ll have a flying lesson. And on Monday, we‘ll probably go and watch one of the wonderful weird traditions that people get up to in the Cotswolds, either Cheeserolling or Woolsack Racing

@howjessreads #FriyayIntro

TheEllieMo For those that don‘t know, Cheeserolling involves chasing after a large Double Gloucester Cheese down a very steep hill. Woolsack racing involves running up a hill while carrying a 50lb sack of wool. We‘re a bit crazy in the Cotswolds.... 5y
CouronneDhiver Flying lessons are crazy but super fun! 5y
