In wanting to show them both why living in this neck of the woods offers some charm all of it's own, we took them to Bosham which is tucked just inside West Sussex between Portsmouth and Chichester.
The weather continued to be glorious and this weekend proved no exception, giving us another warm, cloudless autumnal day.
It was high tide when we arrived, so we walked through the village to the small meadow by the quay. Here we sat in the sunshine and watched the world go by.
Bosham attracts many visitors who like us were keen to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Children were crabbing in the water, dingys were sailing past in the breeze, and all the while the church bells were ringing out, ushering in the wedding party for the three o'clock wedding.
The bride was fashionably late keeping us waiting for our afternoon tea.
So all in all, a lovely afternoon. Relaxed and replete, we returned home for an evening of wine, curry and Strictly Come Dancing!
Twas a lovely weekend Jane and thank you for your wonderful hospitality. Watching Strictly without the debate and commentary will not be the same next week.
ReplyDeleteWhipped double cream, whatever next.... and in a upmarket village such as Bo-shom. Although not arguably as bad as a tea room in Church Stretton in Shropshire that marketed a cream tea with the cream part being, Anchor 'squirty cream'. It was a lovely afternoon and a beautiful spot complete with beautiful people and Boris!
Don't get into the cream on jam, or jam on cream debate!
