Day 6017 (24/06/2026)

The hotel room was very hot, as it is a lovely (overly hot) summer, so sleep wasn't great but we had a lazy morning, then checked-out and had a lovely brunch in Cannons Marsh / Hotwells, we went for a strawberry split smoothie and Sonotto, which was really tasty. 














Day 6016 (23/06/2026)

It is the Anniversary of us first meeting, 42 years ago,  so I bought my wife some flowers and we had a bit of a celebration. 




So we got ready and drove to Bristol, staying overnight near the Watershed, and having a lovely meal at Six By Nico.  




and we went for the cocktails :-)













A very lovely meal, with some very tasty food, and drinks, will definately be going again.


Then we had a nice walk back to the hotel, thru a Bristol which has changed a lot since we left in the mid 1990's. 

 











Day 6015 (22/06/2026)

We are both still off for the week but I do have a bit of work to do, pus I have awful tooth ache, but went to the gym, where I was on the board as Member Of The Month.  



It is slightly (very) embarrassing, especially as due to holidays and illness it's probably the least I have been to the gym in a month for awhile. 



Then home for breakfast.


At lunchtime we had the lovely cheesy scones & chutney, which Lee sent me for Fathers Day. 


Then in the evening I made a spinach & ricotta cannellini, which I have not made for quite a while, but it was OK.  







And we had it with the very lovely alcohol free bottle of Kylie fizz, which Thomas had got me for Fathers Day.

Day 6013 & 6014 (20 & 21/06/2026)

We had a nice sleep & lay-in after traveling back yesterday.  I gave the garden a good water and we had a nice relaxing day.  With some cheese & biscuits for lunch.



And I made a nice cheesy tuna pasta in the evening. 




Sunday was Fathers Day, so after a relaxing morning we went over to see my parents and we took them out for a nice Sunday dinner at The Corner House, which we all enjoyed.  






And some nice afters.
