Week 12

On Sunday, we decided to explore an area of Basingstoke that we’d just heard of. A friend of mine sent me a video about a famous cemetery here in town and the ruins that were on the site. It was even more interesting than we thought.

There are two church ruins on the site, one dating from the 13th century, the second started on a charter by Henry VIII. There was a school there, and a few years later in 1674, students walking through the graveyard heard about a noise from a grave where a woman had been buried alive.

It’s a beautiful site to walk around on.

In other news, I was promoted at work today. I’ve accepted a position in administration. It will be a lot more reports and such, but no more calling customers all day! I’ll let you know how it goes.

    Great news about your job! I noticed that snowdrops are blooming, and other Spring flowers are coming up. It looks lovely. I wish Spring was knocking on our door, too! Love and prayers.

    Love the pictures, the cemetery sounds very intriguing to say the least. Y’all are looking good, good luck with your jobs. Gods blessings to you all.
