Mel's Random April

April has been a mixed month in many ways. We've had sunshine and showers both with the weather and in my personal life. Sometimes I feel like I'm on a roller-coaster which only goes down or stays flat. The only thing keeping me going at the moment is the thought of a week away in May!

Epsom Downs

Still I have started walking again for fun - a friend and I managed a wonderful walk on Epsom Downs (past the Derby Racetrack) on one of the first sunny days we had in ages. The weather was beautiful, the scenery was fantastic and we even got to see some racehorses practice gallops!
