We spent the weekend in St Albans celebrating the engagement of some friends, and one of the things on our to do list was a pint in Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, an amusingly titled pub, that's a contender for the title of the Oldest pub / inn in Britain (technically it's the one in the Guinness Book for records) - Now, previously on a trip to Nottingham we'd visited Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, which also claims the same title...

So, the easiest way to make sure we have defiantly gone to the very oldest pub in Britain is to visit them all right..

This may be our summer holiday....

(my other suggestion would be to visit every pub with the words 'Ye Olde' in the title, but that would be messy I suspect...)

Burns night festivites

Yeah for themed evenings, we had haggis (meat and veggie), proper accompnimets, bits of Burns poetry, Scottish Military Marches and The Proclaimers on spotify and now the boys are enjoying a 'wee dram' of Talisker.
Now why don't any other poets have themed days and meals?

Lacking inspiration for the garden..

The window fitters have almost finished, it's nice to have safe, warm, secure windows that don't feel like they could fall out at any time, and you don't have to prop open with bottles (they've replaced all of the windows on the back of the house, apart from the one in my study - so we've now got double glazing in the Elvis Suite, the upstairs bathroom, the living room, the kitchen and a new back door.

The back door has a window in it, which very clearly brings to the forefront the fact the generally boggy garden needs some attention....
