Tuesday, 10th April/Monday, 16th April 2007 – Utrecht, Zaltbommel Last night I caught a train to Utrecht (which takes around half an hour from here) and went to meet up with Nath. We had plans for the evening, and very successful they were. Initially we intended to have dinner, and then on to the cinema….

Travel 2007 – Malta
Wednesday, 21st March/Friday, 23rd March 2007 – Malta We were in Malta for four days so I suppose I should talk about some of the trip right now… We left home on Wednesday evening, heading for Gatwick (no sensibly timed flights went from anywhere nearer, and even that wasn’t particularly sensible, being a 7.25 departure)….
Food 2007 – Daventry, Waddesdon, Wetherby
Saturday, 9th/Sunday, 24th February 2007 – Daventry, Waddesdon, Wetherby We went out for Lynne’s birthday by virtue of Andrea and Bob deciding that we needed to go out and have “a jolly time“, as Bob put it. A long, lazy lunch at Fawsley Hall was just the thing frankly. It’s a lovely place, and the…
Travel 2006 – Vienna, Day 3
Sunday, 3rd December 2006 – Vienna, Day 3 Sunday was slightly less frenetic than Saturday had been. Again we started with a superb breakfast in the hotel, then took a slow wander along to the Hofburg. It was a chilly day, but we wandered round the outside for a while, and along the Ringstrasse before…
Travel 2006 – Vienna, Day 2
Saturday, 2nd December 2006 – Vienna, Day 2 Saturday got off to a good start (though everyone was a bit sleepy). Breakfast proved to be excellent, with some superb bread and rolls in all shapes, sizes and textures, and hams, cheeses, spreads, jams and things to go with them. There was plenty of fresh fruit,…
Travel 2006 – Vienna, Day 1
Friday, 1st December 2006 – Vienna, Day 1 Friday we were up at some absurd time to haul ourselves to the airport. We picked Steffie up at 6 am and had an easy drive to Heathrow, parking in the Short Stay Car Park which is right next to Terminal 4 (this was a damn good…
Travel 2006 – Macau, Days 10 – 11
Monday, 20th/Tuesday, 21st November 2006 – Macau I woke early, worked on the report and photos, and caught up with Stephen Jelley in the foyer as arranged. Sadly, Stephen didn’t seem to have caught up with Stephen, and he couldn’t remember much (possibly including who he was and which way was up). He wasn’t helped…
Travel 2006 – British Grand Prix, Silverstone, Saturday
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. We were supposed to be having them on Sunday, but a shift…
Travel 2006 – British Grand Prix, Silverstone
Friday, 9th Jun, 2006 – British Grand Prix, Silverstone The day started horribly early when Skil Piccione called to say they were just leaving Northampton on their way to Silverstone, and she would meet me at the circuit gate. 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…
