Wednesday, 13th/Thursday, 14th April 2011 – Monza, Como, Brunate Wednesday was all about the travelling, and it was late in the evening when we made it to Milan Linate and then spent some time trying to round up our hire car. That got interesting, largely because Avis’ website is not quite as informative as it…

Theatre/Food 2011 – The Childrens Hour, Val Taro, Eat at 23, London, Brackley
Saturday, 12th/Sunday, 13th February 2011 – The Childrens Hour, Val Taro, Eat at 23, London, Brackley On Saturday we made what was a rare trip to the theatre. Given the costs of train travel to London for two people, along with the cost of tickets, it’s not something we’ve been able to do that often…
Food 2011 – Halibut, Eat at 23, Buckingham, Brackley
Saturday, 5th February 2011 – Halibut, Eat at 23, Buckingham, Brackley It started out normally enough in that I went running first thing (4 miles at a gentle pace), but it got away from us a bit after that. We had always planned to head for Buckingham and a trip to Halibut to stock up…
Travel 2010 – Monaco, Vence, Valbonne, Days 4 and 5
Saturday, 16th/Sunday, 17th October 2010 – Monaco, Vence, Valbonne, Days 4 and 5 Saturday we again got off to a slow start – though I did slot in my training run (13k) before breakfast (having watched Nico Hulkenberg vanish into the distance outside – I never saw him come back). At breakfast they were losing…
Travel 2010 – Monaco, Antibes, Day 3
Friday, 15th October 2010 – Monaco, Antibes, Day 3 Friday morning I got up relatively early and went for a swim in the hotel pool – which was heart-stoppingly cold that early in the day. The sun was just coming up behind the building and hadn’t hit the water, but I soon warmed up and…
Travel 2010 – Monaco, Days 1 and 2
Wednesday, 13th/Thursday, 14th October 2010 – Monaco, Days 1 and 2 I’ve been missing in action for such a long time now that it’s very hard to know where to start, so I’ll make it simple and go with where I am right now and what I’m doing. After a long complicated summer, Lynne and…
Food 2010 – Whites, Beverley
Saturday, 30th January 2010 – Whites, Beverley So, Saturday night (on a visit to Hull to see my Mum) we went to Whites in Beverley for dinner. I’d been once before and was sufficiently impressed to want to go back for a “proper” run the what looked to be very good cooking (despite a slightly…
Food 2010 – The Roade House, Roade
Friday, 22nd January 2010 – Burns Night Supper, The Roade House, Roade For the last couple of years we have been trying (and failing) to get a table at the Burns’ Night Dinner at one of our favourite local restaurants, the Roade House. Well this year we managed to get a table, and so we…
Travel 2009 – Faro, Tavira, Days 6 and 7
Wednesday, 16th/Thursday, 17th September 2009 – Faro, Tavira, Days 6 and 7 By Wednesday we were becoming very relaxed indeed. Again we breakfasted late and had to fend off the friendly cat. He became even more of a pest as we wandered around the hotel gardens, which are a major part of the attraction of…
Travel 2009 – Faro, Estoi, Milreu, Sao Bras do Alportel, Alte, Day 6
Tuesday, 15th September 2009 – Faro, Estoi, Milreu, Sao Bras do Alportel, Alte, Day 6 Tuesday the weather had improved immensely, which was a relief. After all, what are you going to do in a place that geared for being outside if the weather turns against you? We got up late, and meandered down to…
