Trull: Home away from home (10th to 17th April)

Monday evening April 10 through to Monday morning April 17th our home was with our wonderful and hospitable host Alison.  This is like a holiday within a holiday, appropriately in the very centre of the trip.  Been a lovely stay here and enjoyed the friendship and food and getting to know her delightful children, not to mention our little hero Toffee the Border Terrier (also known locally as Wonder-Dog - see previous blog for his famous exploits).


The 7 days here have been a fair bit of taking it easy, eating too much, some local sight-seeing, re-finding bits of Taunton town and Trull village, drives through Churchinford area.  Martha gets herself a cold/flu and hence slows her down, likely due to an arduous trek from Beer to Seaton and back.  I did Longrun Meadow (Taunton) ParkRun and find that ParkRun is very popular here as shown by the 400+ attendance.  Easter-time now with Church services and Easter eggs, family dinners, children home from University, school holidays.  Catching up with several friends from our days here in 2004.


Couple of pictures of beautiful Trull and here-abouts, will add some more later:
