Weekend at Bournemouth

I’m pleased to announce that I’ve been far too busy having fun (and yet more dentistry) to blog of late. Friday night found us catching up with Beth and Ali and bundle of fun and fur, Jed before heading to Taunton town centre for a few ales. We went to Taunton’s newest Mexican Theme Pub, Que pasa (sic) which was just like walking into Watsonville and Sita grilled the terrified staff about who owned it and if it was a chain, pertinent research questions, naturally. A plan was vaguely hatched to follow Sita and Ali to Prague for a weekend in couple of weeks time, which may or may not happen, depends on the price and that. Both Beth’n’ali are looking well. Plans to have me first fish’n’chips were scuppered by the foolish opening times of Bishop’s Hull’s chippie and dad brought us home safe and sound.
After visiting Taunton market Sat AM for all your dairy, meat and pirate DVD needs, the rest of the weekend was spent round Stu and Anne’s in Bournemouth and that’s where the photos are mainly from (click here, or on the collage). In no particular order, dancing to happy hardcore, watching Live 8 in a pub, scrabble, lasagne, donner kebabs, proper chips, foreign students, irish pubs, hamster, cooked brekkie, walking round forts and beaches, cerne abbas, dorchester. Stu’n’anne’d been off on all kinds of travels since we last met up, india, china, thailand and had a fair few gorgeous pics to browse through. Thoroughly good weekend that one. Ta.
winding down since then, really. walk round lydeard hill with sita, mum and dad, no jed for that one. Off to Brecon on Sat, not sure about internet availability up there. Shall be passing by Hay-on-Wye though, Tanya… righty enough for now, keep up the commenting. Off for another ramble round the village to get away from the omnipresent Olympics 2012 coverage on t’telly. Cheersy- g
