Happy Easter everybody.  Hope you have lovely stuff planned and that in there somewhere is chocolate.

Enjoy. Hope you’re not too traumatised.  If you enjoyed that then please donate if you can, and if [...]

Who lives in a house like this?  Celtic Haven we’re moving in!

Come on in, let me show you round… Isn’t it gorgeous? This was our home for three days and two nights.  Three days of pretending that this little bit of heaven was ours. On the beautiful Pembrokeshire coastline, known for its tales of pirates and fairies, our weary travellers arrived at their destination on a dark and rainy [...]

I love toast, me

Right now, if all is going to plan we should be surrounded by lovely mates and having a fabulous time. Misses E and M will probably be no longer sweetly smelling and neatly attired, but red faced and laughing doing knee slides across the dance floor. Mr B will probably have gravy [...]
