This week we mourn the loss of the great ash tree This week we mourn the loss of the great ash tree in the churchyard. It has had a fortunate life growing from a sappling amongst the graves, to a mighty mature tree. It had become quite a feature in the churchyard and dominated the view from our kitchen window. However in recent years it became very sick with ash dieback and was frequently dropping branches, making it quite a hazard. On the positive side, it's removal has really opened up the churchyard and our kitchen is now flooded with light. The squirrels are looking a little perplexed though, as it was one of their favourite trees. #churchyard #victorianchurchyard #ashdieback
It has been a very emotional time for all of us, a It has been a very emotional time for all of us, as last week Fred moved to America to study at university. His passion for cycling has resulted in him being awarded a cycling scholarship by Marian University in Indianapolis, in the state of Indiana. He is so thrilled to finally have amazing cycling facilities, such as an outdoor velodrome, on his doorstep, and is looking forward to competing throughout America with the university team. A very exciting opportunity for him, even though we are already missing him terribly!
20 years! This week we mark 20 years of Christ Chu 20 years! This week we mark 20 years of Christ Church living. It is hard to believe that is has really been that long, especially when it feels like we still have so much to do. However during those 20 years, we have halted the deterioration of Christ Church and re-opened it for public access. We have built a family home and enlarged our family to three sons; one of whom, Owen has flown the nest and is now doing up his own house in Leeds. Our middle son, Fred, is about to leave to study in America, so we are preparing for a lot of change in the next few weeks. Whilst it has been 20 years of hard work, and there really is still so much to do, we are thriving. Christ Church has been very good to us, for which we are very grateful.
