We both had steak and ale pie the chocolate brownie for dessert. Since we\u2019ve been changing our mindsets, and also due to a book I\u2019m reading, there were no price limits on what we did or what we ate. We had a great time. After lunch we walked around some of the grounds and gardens before driving home and having steak, lamb chops and burgers for dinner, yes I\u2019m still pretty much on the carnivore diet.  Life really is good.  We had tried to fit in visiting there in early May when we went to Derbyshire first a weekend but didn\u2019t want to hurry our last day there when we visited Chatsworth House, which is another absolutely beautiful house.

We\u2019re looking at our futures and we\u2019re looking at investments while doing it too. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday was a bank holiday here in the UK so Fynn and I had a day off.
