My English Vacation, Jun 5-17
I spent most of my time in Bury St Edmunds, where I flitted between home and Charlie's new house. Visited Becky at her new offices in London as well as my old Cambridge colleagues - and saw Rusedski, Hewitt and Krajicek (and their lesser known opponents) in the second round of the Stella Artois Championships. The weather was beautiful, and we dined al fresco most of the time.
At Charlie and Jay's for a barbecue.
Lunch at the Pickerel across from my old workplace, Magdalene College.
Becky, Mark and 9-month-old Isabella on Primrose Hill.
Defending champion, Lleyton Hewitt, playing Raemon Sluiter
on Centre Court at Queen's. I had a front-row seat!
Becky and colleagues grab a Pimms between matches.
The dashing Hugo checking his Blackberry.
Hewitt being awarded Player of the Year.
Dad's 60th birthday lunch at the Spread Eagle (where I was once a barmaid).
Then back home for a spot of badminton.
Sisters together for the first time in a year and a half!
Various family members enjoying the weather at Dad's party.
Still nice enough for Sunday brunch on the patio the next day.
(Isabella in a new outfit made by Auntie Jill.)
Then three generations go for a drink at the Dove.
