We pulled up to the beautiful - and huge! - house we were staying in at Brancaster. Alex's grandparents, Ettie and Royston; his aunt Penny and uncle Dave and their kids, Oliver, Hannah and Eleanor; and his aunt Nancy and uncle Mike and their kids, Joe and Ben met up with us later. We were there to celebrate Ettie and Roy's 60th wedding anniversary!
The sitting room.
The weird Aga stove. It is always on. Always. And there are no temperature controls. It's just that the top right compartment is the hottest, and then the other compartments are progressively less hot. And the burners are always on but have covers over them, which you lift up if you want to put a pot on. Very strange.
The house had a pool, which is really weird for England.
The first night, Dave gave everyone an album of photos collected throughout Ettie and Roy's marriage. This is Roy, Ettie and Eleanor.
