Just been watching the Red Bull world Air Championships. Some crazy pilots flying along a slalom course and under one of the bridges along the Danube in sunny Budapest.

The wedding is at Crayke Manor but we are staying two nights so Friday the Durham Ox will be where we eat.

Just had a lovely relaxing day in Portishead. A picnic in the sun followed by a walk around the lake and Lido. A bit of a do nothing day, apart from reading the paper and people watching. Lush!

Just got home from a reet grand couple 'o' days in that there London.
We were going to see Adele at Wembley last night but she cancelled with a bad throat, anybody would think she's been touring for 15 months or so?
Anyways, we went to Borough Market this afternoon, what an amazing place!
Bustling full of sights, sounds and tastes from all and everywhere.
Had some great lunch off a stall entitled 'Soul' food, oxtail stew. Bloomin' lovely it was!
We then walked across and back London Bridge and stopped to reflect a fair few minutes at a memorial that's sprung up to victims of that recent atrocity.
Very moving few minutes and took a couple of pic's aswell. MOT.

I've just got back from an amazing trip to Venice on the Orient Express. It's been something I've dreamed of for years & the other half surprised me on my 60th birthday with
books, brochures etc. I had to organise it mind !
The only concern was that it would be all toffs & we'd feel a bit out of it, but most folk were just your normal types who'd saved up for a special treat so worries unfounded.
Everyone was treated with the same excellent service, courtesy & respect. It was absolutely fantastic - a real dream come true.
Mind you, after all the posh nosh we were ready for beans on toast & bacon sarnies when we got home.
