Tuesday November 15th Another good night’s sleep and I was starting to feel altogether more human – amazing! Who knew the best way to avoid jetlag was to stay awake for 37 hours straight then switch to local time immediately on arrival?! Anyway we opted for a trip over to Coloane this time, just to…

Travel 2011 – Macau, Day 2
Monday November 14th Monday morning wasn’t anywhere near as painful as it could have been for some odd reason and when the alarm went off at 9 am we both got up cheerfully enough and wandered down to breakfast. The IFT breakfast’s are not the biggest spread you’ll ever find but – and this is…
Food 2011 – Roger Hickman’s, Norwich
Saturday, 14th May 2011 – Roger Hickman’s, Norwich A weekend at Snetterton is not a cheerful thing, and therefore if we have to race there, then there has to be some sort of balance to the weekend, usually in the shape of the best meal we can find. This time, after a brief search of…
Travel/Food 2011 – British Museum, Cambio de Terce, Victoria and Albert Museum, Canela, London

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…
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…
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…

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…
Travel 2009 – Portimao, Silves, Faro, Estoi, Day 5
Monday, 14th September 2009 – Portimao, Silves, Faro, Day 5 Monday morning we were in no hurry at all to do anything or go anywhere, apart from needing to check out of the Globo by noon. We had a leisurely breakfast, packed slowly and were ready to go by 11. Bills paid and car packed…
