What made the night especially memorable was the cockchafer beetles that fell out of the tree during the night and tried to take off, and got caught up in my bedding. Beetle armageddon it was in the morning.... still, happy days, eh?<br /><br />...away on a train there.

Shocking!<br /><br />Ludlow is a place that I have never visited but have read about for years. I can see why you and Andy would like having it handy.<br /><br />There is a street not far from where I work called Ludlow Street. A song writer/singer called Garland Jeffreys once wrote a song about it, called Ghost Writer. Do you know that tune?<br /><br />It offers nothing as beautiful as the views in your post. Still your post brought it to my mind.<br /><br />xo<br /><br />Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313028.post-45063993850482258232012-09-02T01:22:42.908+01:002012-09-02T01:22:42.908+01:00Ludlow is lovely.

To meet the same people at the same places where you have seen them last - isn't this exciting!
