For the last 5 years Matt and I have spent the last Saturday in July at a Canal Festival in Leighton Buzzard. I've got to spend the day with knitting friends and Matt has enjoyed exploring the canal, the music, the birds of prey etc.
So we set off yesterday morning with high hopes for a good day out. Ten minutes after leaving home we were on the M25, eleven minutes we were in a traffic jam that didn't move for ninety minutes! The Tomtom and the radio informed us that it was going to take nearly 3 times the normal journey time due to accidents, roadworks etc. A quick discussion meant we abandoned the idea and exited the motorway as soon as we could.
We decided to head off to Scotney as we hadn't managed a visit yet this year. The gardens were looking fantastic so I thought I'd share a few images with you:

Sorry your plans were frustrated by that stupid car park (aka M25) but glad you managed to go somewhere lovely
