Friday, 27th/Sunday, 29th October 2006 – London, Lacock The weekend? What can I say? Well, it was packed, hectic and pretty damn wonderful in all sorts of ways. It just doesn’t seem to have involved enough sleep! Friday started out well, and I worked from home in the morning, while Lynne was out getting her…

Travel 2006 – Mugello
Thursday 7th/Monday 11th September – Mugello, Italy Italy – what can I really say about it? Let’s start with Thursday, which was really entirely eaten up with travelling. We got a good early start on Thursday morning, which turned out to be just as well, because the M40 was grindingly slow after a “police incident”…
Travel 2006 – Brands Hatch, London
Saturday 1st/Sunday 2nd, July 2006 – Brands Hatch, London Well, we had a really relaxing weekend at the DTM meeting at Brands Hatch.

Saturday, 10th Jun, 2006 – British Grand Prix, Silverstone Again the day started early, with Glyn (aka Megamarshal) leaving for the circuit at 7am, followed by Wendy and Jane arriving at the house to pick up the two spare hospitality passes we had.

I got ready in nothing flat and headed out of the door, arriving on the approach…
Travel/Food 2006 – Oxford, UK
Saturday, 28th May 2006 – Oxford The weekend was gloomy in weather terms, though we made the most of it. Late on Friday afternoon, Gina arrived for the weekend, and after champagne and the latest episode of Doctor Who we hit the Rice Bowl for Chinese. As usual it was very good. A session on the…
Food/Travel 2006 – Portishead, Curry Rivel, Kingston Episcopi, Muchelney, UK
Saturday, 1st April 2006 – Portishead, Curry Rivel, Kingston Episcopi, Muchelney We recently went west to visit Lynne’s parents, and to coincidentally take a trip to the Somerset Levels in search of smoked eel, cider brandy and history. The trip down was relatively easy once we worked out how to avoid Oxford (they’re digging all…
Travel 2006 – Oxford, UK
Saturday, 4th March 2006 – Oxford College reunions can be dangerous! Where do I start? Good question. There wasn’t anything to suggest the weekend was going to get badly derailed, at least not to begin with. I treated myself to a gym session early on Saturday, knowing we’d be eating lunch and dinner in Oxford,…
