The Blog...

Just got back from a short trip to America.

Started off with 5 days in Boston and thoroughly enjoyed the place. Beautiful city and very easy to get around. Buildings are nice and not many really tall buildings either so the skyline is lovely. I guess it is probably the most closest to a British feel seeing as this is New England! There's even a place that feels just like Covent Garden.

Then we went to see Graham and family. Lovely to see my niece and nephew growing up. So much more chattier than last time althought it has been about 5 years since then.

Lots of sun, a bit of rain and 10+ sets of guests staying at Hotel Fong this year and some from around the world. Very busy and tiring, all that socialising.

Airshow on this week and fingers crossed that it doesn't get rained off like it has done over the past couple of years. Such as shame after a great start.

I may get some free time to add some photos, in November maybe.

Have been to The Tickled Pig in Wimborne twice now and have had nice meals both times. Review here.

I also have a voucher for the Pig Hotel as a birthday present so need to get there for a dinner. Definitely looking forward to that but really not sure when I will have the time!

Now that the bank holiday weekend is upon us, it looks like, and he says it tentatively, that it is going to be a sunshine filled long weekend.

About time too.

We are also looking to revive the Bournemouth beach BBQ on Sunday 26 May. Don't think we have done it for a couple of years as I think we probably got sick for the wind and occasional rain.

Bring it on.
