Last weekend away...

So, we enjoyed a good but busy W/E and I haven't got around to blogging about it yet.
Too cold by half to consider the road trip in Eliza yet so we set off in Stuart's hire car (some young lass having driven into him and scraped the avensis down the entire length of passenger side). We arrived with Gary in Kenilworth on Thursday evening having stopped off in Ross on Wye - usually sail right past and admire the Church spire and river from a distance. Quite a quaint little place in parts. Perused the book sections of the second hand shops, picking up a couple of novels each. Had a lovely cake and cuppa in a rather nice tea shop and bought a very good bottle of red of a little Scottish man (portabello, Edinburgh) to take to Gary.  Gary seemed on reasonable form, although I thought he looked older (don't we all) possibly cos he was in worky clothes not usual jeans. Anyway we later picked up Sue (fresh back from a Nile cruise the previous night) and went to eat out at a pub in Lemmington - food surprisingly excerllent -had a risotto-like jambourini - surf and turf food and spicey too. Music a bit loud but enjoyable evening. Then stayed over and had wholemeal toast and jam for breakfast - nom!
