I went to Bury St Edmunds today, big shopping trip, I got a TV tray and some dishes that won't melt in the Microwave. (Unlike the plastic plate I have with a hole in the middle of it that evidently wasn't microwavable. I found that out when I finished the pizza and found the hole melted in the middle!)
I had lunch on the TV Tray. Wow, that sure beats holding everything in your lap and reaching down to get your drink over the edge of the seat. The tray came from Argos, you place your order in the store and the items magically come down the conveyor belt to you.
But back to the Wall of Green. I am in a very lush, agricultural area of England. As you drive often the roads are lined with greenery, shrubs / trees / etc. that are quite often very tall. The large trucks keep the greenery "trimmed" back which then gives you a carved wall of green. Well, really sometimes a carved tunnel of green!
The roads are very narrow and you hold your breath when you are meeting a large truck or a large tractor pulling a large trailer. To make things even more exciting people are passing each other left and right. The twenty mile trek to Bury is dotted with about a dozen small towns with beautiful small houses, pubs, and churches. One town has several thatched roofs as well.
I'm looking forward to dinner on the TV tray!
