Now, I love the IDEA of bike-riding. But, I don’t think I was..... designed to sit
on bike seats for long rides across bumpy countryside lanes. Although, to look at it, there’s NOTHING bony
about my bum (I’d say it’s fairly well-padded), saddles always manage to seek
those bones out. And, well, the two don’t
get along very well!!! So, when Simon
suggested a bike ride, I wasn’t particularly enthusiastic. He promised, though, that we wouldn’t go far –
and that I could have cake! No more
persuasion needed!
Sometimes, I appreciate a bit of firm persuasion. Because I really enjoyed our little adventure
in the end.....
We cycled to the little cafe at Schloss Heltorf, in
Angermund. I DO miss English cakes
(especially iced-buns, jam tarts, scones, Victoria sponge, butterfly cakes, Devon
splits.....) BUT, they DO have a yummy
selection at the ‘Schloss Stübchen’!
Now we’re hiding
away inside, keeping out of the lashing rain, I’d love to go for a big piece
of cake healthy bike ride.....
As a little
aside, I’m wearing my first-dress-made-by-me dress in the photos. I know you can’t see it very well. But which version do you like best (you can
see my second attempt in my last post, here)?
Hope the sun’s
sunny where you are!
