What a treat you have in-store... Enjoy!Very happy with the 5.2 this morning. Yesterday was a lovely day. The little wood was so tranquil and we sat on a bench listening to the birds. The sunlight shining down through the trees was beautiful.
we then went on to have the best Sunday lunch we had ever had in our local area. It was the first time we had ever eaten there and we will definitely be going back. The dogs loved it to - especially the roast pork which was superb.
off early to Sheringham park to see the rhodedendroms. We are going early as there is a warning on the National Trust Website that they are expecting lots of people this afternoon. I think it is because they will be at their best this week.
Yesterday sounds lovely and reflects in your fbg. Today also sounds like a feast for the senses and tonic for the soul. If it is not too cheeky would you be prepared to PM me the name of the pub/eatery please as doing so here would probably be considered advertising. TIA.Very happy with the 5.2 this morning.

then we ended up try to get a table in some plush vietnamese restaurant the wife has used, that evening.
restaurant empty, but fully booked up for later, sadly.
Which was fine..SO we now intended to hit stick N Bowl in kensington for a take away, and sit watch GoT again
But when we got there, seats where available, so we thought we'd go 'tourist' and pretended we were in a foreign Capital.
(considering Vietnam (ho chi minh city ) or Myanmar (ngapali beach ) for next years adventures, so good practice.
we both like Anthony Bourdain's show.(rip), and he always went as ethnic as possible, shunning the high end in favour of the 'real' foods
so we did same...in Kensington..
Blooming lovely..Roast duck noodle soup, and crispy ribs, green vegetables in sauce.

Never considered the advertising aspect of what we type here. Good point.Yesterday sounds lovely and reflects in your fbg. Today also sounds like a feast for the senses and tonic for the soul. If it is not too cheeky would you be prepared to PM me the name of the pub/eatery please as doing so here would probably be considered advertising. TIA.

I enjoy reading your posts so much… You sir, are a wordsmith with the utmost talent for painting pictures with arranged letters on the page. I wish I had a fraction of your ability to set a two-dimensional medium in to a mindscape of technicolour surround sound.Good morning everyone from balmy Lands Are Grotty. A bit of sea mist this morning but set to be another scorchio.
The thing about having nine bedrooms is that you are never quite sure where people are. Luckily they are split between two floors with two wings on each floor - Mrs Miggins and I have bagged an isolated room on the upper level to reduce early morning squarking.
I am currently sat in the kitchen slurping tea. Little Miss Pamplemousse (aged 4) is wandering about with a long handled dustpan and broom doing some “tidying up” and delivering “mail”; the discarded envelopes from yesterdays birthday cards.
The two year old twins, Chaos and Mayhem, are trailing behind picking up the “mail” and putting it back in the mail bag. All three of them are wearing sun glasses, Chaos has hers on upside down because she is a fashionista. Mayhem has her doll with her, bereft of clothing because it’s hot - so why is it wrapped in a baby blanket?
Anyhow, my wheel of zeitgeist and schadenfreude spat out a begrudging 4.6 this morning, all down down to four carefully constructed events:
1. Go into town at 10am and have a full English sans carbs.
2. 50 lengths of the pool after the water has been sufficiently stirred by the goings on of 6 children, aided by a couple of adults, an inflatable crocodile, an inflatable duck, two rubber rings and something still quite unknown but still a necessary part of the carefully constructed plan.
3. A late afternoon escape by Mrs Miggins and I down to the beach where we discovered a bar with a great view and just had to have a glass of chilled red wine and some olives. Walk there and back with a meander, about 4 miles.
4. Fish and tapas bar - had garlic prawns followed by a sort of hot plateau de fruits de mer and a nice bottle of Rioja Crianza.
5. (I know - who would have thought) - walk back from bar - kids in bed - a glass of scotch and a blather.
I shall be recommending this method to all. Far better than worrying about things you have no control over.
Have a great Monday.
4.3 Woop! woop! Great stuffA 4.3 greets me on my testery thingy.
I’m Up and ready to attack the day
Looks outside there’s rain!
Grizzly miserable rain.
Rapid change of plans..
Its taking part that is all important... Giving up is NOT an option. That is why you keep posting here. So in my book C you are a winner. Unlike the losers who join up, never read any of the important information here, nor make any attempt to change their way of eating or their lifestyle.12.9 oh well some you win some you lose
Have a good day
