Wednesday, May 9th – Day 5, Bordeaux I started the day with a run out from the hotel and along the riverside walk that was already busy with other runners, walkers, cyclists and skateboarders. It gave me an opportunity to figure out the lie of the land between the hotel and the river, and provided…

Travel/Food 2018 – Kødbyens Fiskebar, Copenhagen
Wednesday, 21st/Friday, 23rd March 2018 – Tivoli Food Hall, Kodbyens Fiskebar, Copenhagen Back again, this time for two nights, I made it to the lovely Hotel Danmark by around 20:30, spent five minutes unpacking and then headed to the lobby to meet up with Andy, my colleague. We’d agreed that we’d go for dinner together,…
Travel 2018 – Chichester
Saturday, 16th March 2018 – Chichester We had tickets for the Sunday of the Goodwood Members’ Meeting this year and rather than haul out of bed at stupid o’clock we’d booked an Airbnb place in Chichester for the Saturday night so we could go down in good order and not have to worry about the…
Travel/Food 2018 – Gorilla, Copenhagen
Tuesday, 27th/Wednesday 28th February 2018 – Gorilla, Copenhagen And so for the second time this year I found myself in Copenhagen on business. This trip was quite a lot tougher. Due to a variety of circumstances, some of them down to my own lack of organisation, we’d been out late in London the night before…
Travel 2018 – Monaco, Day 4
Monday, February 19th 2018 – Monaco It was our last day but we had plenty of time (and a late check-out at the hotel) so we took our own sweet time getting packed and ready to check out, having a cup of coffee while we enjoyed the views from the room over the harbour, and…
Travel 2018 – Monaco, Day 3
Sunday, February 18th 2018 – Monaco After some pretty questionable weather we woke on Sunday to blue skies, bright sunshine and just the sort of weather we’d be hoping for. After another very pleasant breakfast we took the lift to the top floor of the hotel and set off towards the Casino, getting side-tracked by…
Travel 2018 – Monaco, Day 2
Saturday, February 17th 2018 – Monaco A late start was called for after a good night’s sleep. We aimed for a 10:00am breakfast, missed by 15 minutes, and finally got our act into gear to go out a little after 11. We’d decided that, despite the fact that we pretty much know Monte Carlo like…
Travel 2018 – Monaco, Day 1
Friday, 16th February 2018 – Vence, Monaco And so for Lynne’s 60th birthday weekend away we found ourselves on a stupid o’clock BA flight from Heathrow to Nice where we picked up a hire car (after a certain amount of trying to battle our way through the chaos that is the building work going on…
Travel/Food 2018 – Copenhagen Brewpub, Hotel Danmark, Copenhagen
Monday, 29th/Tuesday 30th January 2018 – Hotel Danmark, Copenhagen Brewpub, Copenhagen I’ve been over to Copenhagen three times already this year and it seems odd that I don’t currently have a trip scheduled for this month… anyway, I’ll start with the first trip of the year, back in January. Once again faced with the idea…
Food/Travel 2017 – Krakow, Day 6
Tuesday December 5th – Day 6, Krakow Tuesday was our last day and so after breakfast we tidied up the apartment, dropped off the keys and hauled our suitcases to the offices of the travel company who would be responsible for taking us to the airport in the evening. We were there just before 09:00…
