Our Honeymoon – Day 2

Sunday was Jane's birthday. I slept very well, had a nice green tea in bed, then a bowl of Just Right and some delicious scrambled farm eggs on rustic wholemeal toast. The shower in our apartment was incredible - kind of sunk into the ground. We went off to Cockington on this day, Cockington Court in particular. Jane downloaded a…

Nice couple of days

Seeing as Jane and I were going out for a meal with her work-mates in Southampton last night, I thought I'd go over earlier in the day and see my family.

Holiday 2012: Day 3

I got the impression Jane was still feeling delicate. In the evening we…
