A contingency plan turned out to be inspiring – English Garden Tours #VLOG

Our weekend didn’t go quite as planned. We headed out to our favourite car-boot, but it was cancelled! However, we made the most of our trip by visiting some stunning English country gardens in a picturesque Norfolk village. These gardens were beautifully designed and full of inspiration, perfect for any garden enthusiast.

we’re heading out to a car boot well that didn’t go quite to plan right so the day hasn’t gone as planned this day is just conspiring against us a little [Music] different hat welcome it’s Saturday and we’re heading out to a car boot we’ve got a full house today so I’ve got Mark and then Rowan somewhere in the background we really weren’t sure whether this one would be on because on Facebook they post in the evening whether it’s going to be on and the rain has been horrendous this week and I don’t think they updated Facebook until about midnight but anyway the sun is out it’s on so off we go [Music] [Music] well that didn’t go quite to plan we’ve just arrived and apparently it was cancelled about about 40 minutes ago um which is when we left off because it’s about a 40-minute journey to get here I would imagine that people started turning up and the field that it’s in was just too wet and was being ched up so they’ve canceled it what should we do now we’re heading to a cafe to come up with a plan but for now I think we’ll pop into a couple of Charity shops just to see what they’ve got let’s have a look we’re currently in ale which is a beautiful Northfork Town here’s another charity shop this is a pretty little ginger jar made by Masons £150 I haven’t had any luck today I don’t think there’s anything I want to buy that’s okay though right now let’s go to bread sauce [Music] this is our favorite pit stop after going to the Elam car boot they do amazing pastries and really nice tea as you can see Rowan’s diving into a cinnamon bun and I’ll just pan round that you can see aam Square in all its Glory it’s a beautiful Georgian town right so the day hasn’t gone as planned but we now have come up with Plan B after a nice sit down and a cup of tea in bread sauce
