Borde Hill Gardens with some Sculptures..

The weather promised to be better today and as I'm going to be confined to barrack tomorrow, then where to?  I'd seen that Borde Hill Gardens had its annual sculpture exhibition on, so that decided me.

Ponders soon found a couple of friends to sit with and watch the world go by

Where possible I've noted the names of the sculptures...

Thought I'd visit the Little Ritz Tea Garden for a cuppa before setting off home.  But it was fully occupied so I didn't stop this time.





A very pleasant day ... pity the sun didn't keep me company that much though....
