So we arrived back home today. Somewhat delayed, we were supposed to get back yesterday but there was something of a cock up in the flight booking. It transpired that we did not in fact have a flight from Heathrow … Continue reading →

Last night we ate out in a restaurant that boasted 5 different styles of cuisine and 5 different chefs. You could choose any combination of dish from any of the different menus. The food was very special but the restaurant … Continue reading →
