Change of Service

I am writing this 22 years after launching my blog, and several years since I regularly updated it. It remains one of my most enjoyable accomplishments and was the Gateway to so much more enjoyment. Realistically though, I've been kidding... Continue reading

Herdwicks

A good few years back now, we holidayed in Ambleside in the Lake District. They had taken up the charming trend of the Teens, decorated animal statues - in this case, Herdwick sheep, characteristic of the Lake District. You know... Continue reading

Folkestone East Cliff

A warm and bright February Saturday, and it would have been criminal to stay indoors waiting for Spring. So, we went to Folke- stone. So many people out, all along the coast, obviously with this same thought! We parked up... Continue reading

Afternoon tea at Hythe Imperial

My sister gave me a voucher for my birthday: so J and I went one gloriously sunny Saturday afternoon. It was a very nice afternoon tea; afterwards my camera and I had a little nosey around the hotel. The grounds... Continue reading

Quince Tree Cottage

Probably the nicest holiday let I have stayed in. I thought it was beautiful indoors, both in terms of refurbishment and modernisation, and in regard to décor and equipment. Its main disadvantage was being a long steep walk up from... Continue reading

Lympne is built on the site of the Roman fort and port Portus Lemanis, on the Saxon Shore. In subsequent centuries the lagoon below has become Romney Marsh. After brunch at The Bistro at Lympne Castle, we wandered the churchyard... Continue reading
