We will be trogging over to Basingstoke, staying in the luxury of the Winchester Road Travelodge, to attend Dave ‘n’ Rox’s farewell party; they’re taking six months to travel round Europe in a camper van with their two children, and then they’re off to Rox’ native New Zealand. For good.
We have already put a shovel and a bag of gritty cat litter in the car, and will be taking blankets and chocolate and water Just In Case. So you can expect The Big Thaw to set in tomorrow and make us look like idiots, and I don’t care.
Other than that, absolutely nothing beckons, expect possibly a trip to the Heston Blumenthal Ickle Thief at Popham, just because we’re almost passing.
We had Olympic Breakfasts at Popham the other weekend, the place has a very nice diner feel about it and the food was very good, though not exactly cheap. Then again, the non-Hestoned Cheffettes aren’t especially cheap either.
You are daft, you could have stayed with me! I live on the Winchester Road.
Hope you didn’t need the blankets and ate the chocolate anyway 🙂
