Saturday 10th June, 2017 – Hämeenlinna/Ahvenisto, Finland Saturday saw us mostly at the race track and mostly inside as it was extremely cold out there. We did emerge from the cafe for the SMP F4 NEZ babies, and for the Porsches, once we realised that the son of someone we used to watch race was…

Food/Travel 2017 – Day 1, Hämeenlinna/Ahvenisto, Finland
Friday June 9th, 2017 – Hämeenlinna, Finland We learned quite a lot on our most recent trip to Finland, starting with “just because it’s June, don’t expect it to be warm!” and rounding up to “there is absolutely sod all to do in Hämeenlinna on a Sunday night after 9pm”! It was probably the latter…
Travel 2017 – Kingston-upon-Hull, Pocklington
Friday, 25th/Sunday, 27th May 2017 – Kingston-upon-Hull (Hull), Pocklington As some of you may know, Hull – or more properly Kingston-upon-Hull – was 2017 UK City of Culture, with the result that there was much activity around the city, and beyond, to publicise it, and for that matter to share some of the art that…
2017 Food – Rascill’s, Raskelf
Sunday 27th May, 2017 – Rascill’s, Raskelf I need to say this. Rascill’s is one of those restaurants I absolutely love. I just wish I didn’t live so far away (162 miles) or I’d be there at least once a month! Our trip to Hull gave us the perfect excuse to detour slightly on our…
Food 2017 – 1884 Dock Street Kitchen, Hull
Saturday 26th May – 1884 Dock Street Kitchen, Hull Part of our trip to Hull saw us needing somewhere local to eat out, and no matter what we’d been told, the Michelin Guide suggested there was one place worth going to, and that was 1884 Dock Street Kitchen. The fact that both John Robinson at…
Travel 2017 – Kødbyens Fiskebar, Færgekroen Bryghus, Copenhagen
Monday, 22nd/Thursday, 25th May 2017 – Kødbyens Fiskebar, Færgekroen Bryghus, Copenhagen May in Copenhagen made a welcome change as otherwise I only seemed to be getting there when it was cold and dark, and while the place has its charms even in those conditions, it’s far pleasanter in the summer months. The difference was noticeable…
Food 2017 – Whites, Beverley
Friday 25th May White’s, Beverley So… we went to Kingston-upon-Hull (or ‘Ull if you will) for some of the 2017 City of Culture events about which more elsewhere, and obviously while we were there we needed to eat. Now back in the day you’d be lucky to find a decent Chinese or Indian, never mind…
Travel 2017 – A Suggested London Itinerary
Three Days in London Let’s assume you have three days to spare in London. Here’s what I’d suggest: Day 1 You could start at Borough Market and maybe have a late breakfast/early lunch there instead of at your hotel. In fact if you set your mind to it you can eat your way into a…
Food 2017 – La Strada Nuovo, Towcester
Saturday 8th April, 2017 – La Strada Nuovo, Towcester There seem to be ever more eating options around our home town that fit in the “Saturday night dinner out without booking three years in advance and taking out a mortgage” bracket, and La Strada Nuovo now squarely fits that bill, after a rocky handful of…
Food 2016/2017 – Food “Boxes”
2016/2017 Food – Food Boxes It’s a phenomenon that’s been bubbling away under the radar in many people’s cases for some considerable time. A number of companies will basically send you all the ingredients (or almost all, but we’ll come to that) you need to feed a set number of people 3 or 4 meals….
