Working from home is the future...

A snowy afternoon forces the office to be abandoned but it has its advantages.

A wee glass of lovely cockburns special reserve port... Instigated by space flower of course!

Wet feet give inspirational idea for xmas present

So spaceflower decided to go horse riding... Sproglet and I decided to take the monster for a walk in the upper upper colne valley.

Lots of mud and water makes sproglet appreciate the wonders of waterproof practical footwear. Chrismas present sorted.

Having parked right outside the tunnel end, it would be rude not to pop in for atleast 1 pint. Here we have a pint of flowers original. Nice pint and it must be cold outside as Gary's beer doesn't taste as cold as it usually does. Cracking pint grommit.

There's no place like home...

Well, there is the tunnel end inn where we visited earlier this afternoon, but this comes a very close second. Your's for a snip of only £180k.

Here we have a nice glass of pinot grigio. I'd love to tell you about its terroir and its characteristics but they are lost on me, would rather have a pint!

Pictured here is dog drying out after nice walk up Wessenden valley this afternoon.

One reason to buy the house down the road

Ok, this could be our new local. Could, perhaps should be our new local, only reason it won't be is that its too expensive (the house) and no parking.

Taking advantage tonight of 2 meals for £12 at the excellent navigation in dobcross. Seems to be back to its best tonight. Last few times we've been its been a bit iffy but here's a nice pint of Tribute from Cornish brewer st austell. It's come a long way but its a worthy trip.

Also making an appearance tonight is tiger rutt last tasted here last year. Smells of cannabis, tastes of cannabis if I remember correctly.

His & Hers....

She used to drink pints but since ditching the ale, she's turned into a veritable Elle McPherson...

Whisked Elle away for a romantic night in lancashire (if such a thing exists). Ok, it was a bit of a bargain but she's not to know. The amazing Waddington Arms, excellent food, dog friendly, lovely rooms, very friendly staff.

Sadly, first pint was off, I love it when I'm right... Second pint was the last out of the pump before that was changed... Then there were 3... Pedigree, golden pippin and Celtic gold - the later shown here. Hopefully we'll drink them dry of this and they'll have to stick another barrel on!

Gordon's and slim for Elle till sound down.
