De Vere New Place was doing bookings for £49 per room, but actually if you said that there would be two people then the price went up to £59 strangely and annoyingly. Anyway that was a bargain anyway.

Matthew and Hannah live in Wickham just around the corner, so we met up with them for a few cheeky drinks down in the Square. Two bottles of wine later we had a another glass or two at their home. We were starving after this afternoon drinking so we went back to the square to the Wickham Wine Bar.

After spending a fair few pounds in the place on our scallops that we both had and then on a steak and roast partridge, I had a huge salt craving. Really bad. The fish and chip shop was closed so I had a duck and prawn noodles from the Chinese takeaway!

Sitting on the hotel bed, watching X-Factor (not my idea) eating from the carton on top of the sheets was quite funny.

We had a laugh with friends and that is what life is about.
