Diary of a Manor

The tale of the Manor, seen through the eyes of life, and told through the days weeks and seasons of the beautiful Cotswolds.

@AlastairBruce_ They had one job, 2033?? 🫣🙄

[Diary of a Manor @DiaryOfAManor]

@ted_baker appalled at your lack of interest into my lost order with Evri. 2 weeks really isn’t acceptable.

The best circus, ever 😍

[Giffords Circus @giffordscircus]

Giffords Circus will return in 2023 with a brand new show and whilst we are keeping the name strictly under wraps for now, tickets however have just launched on our website https://t.co/JkEHJ6JJqj

@GlosLiveOnline He? Seriously? Glos live has gone so downhill.

@HackedOffHugh @giffordscircus Giffords is an absolute delight!

The heady scent of June roses fills the early morning air. Their delicate and unmistakable perfume dances around one’s senses like summers smile. The gardens change almost daily as more come into bloom. It is the most glorious place, a place of peace and happiness. #cotswolds

Well done Matt!

We took our latest addition up to earn his wings today. We have been very lucky that 4 out of our 5 love flying as much as we do! I have yet to take one out on the wing with me though, that might be a totally different story!

@GlosPol_Rural @CotswoldsPolice @NFUsouthwest @nfum @FarmersWeekly @NationalGamekee @HPT_Official @BASCSW @gloswildlife @GWCT There have been several coursing dogs abandoned of late. Not only are the coursers terrorising our countryside and wildlife, they have zero care for their own animals. Book needs to be thrown at them, heavily.

The excitement builds for the perfect Country House Christmas. 5 bookings over the festive season who all will kick back and relax with log fires roaring, while the children wait for Santa to come a calling 🎅🏻 🎁🎄

[Diary of a Manor @DiaryOfAManor]

@GlosPol_Rural @Glosfire @RuralCrimeNtwk Bravo indeed. In a neighbouring village a coursing dog was left behind battered and bruised, thanks to the kindness of others he now has a splendid new and loving home. Keep up the fantastic work!

Well done to 4 looper Billy Claridge and @fly2help, not only that but he also did two stall turns, another loop and a few rolls!
Great aerobatic flight with us @aerosuperbatics

@Knibbsey Very, very frustrating.

[Diary of a Manor @DiaryOfAManor]

@giffordscircus Wishing all a speedy recovery! Will you continue this show into next year as so many have missed out due to covid.

[Diary of a Manor @DiaryOfAManor]

@CotswoldLadyB Trying, and to be fair the Co is a good & ethical one, but house owner offered big £ to rent long term, so loyal returning guests lose, & many will be out of work due to this, can’t beat the depth of Saudi pockets..

@Fawful81 Place names, especially for non native speakers or our cousins across the pond. Glao-cester-sheere (Gloucestershire) for one, does make me smile but I would never castigate, just politely insert said word into conversation pronounced correctly.

@MrNickKnowles The M4 is a monotonous bore even without roadworks. It will never be a ‘Smart’ motorway at this rate, we’ve just come to accept the 50 🙄

@weetabix @HeinzUK PLEASE someone ask @churchofengland for an exorcism 👀
