Clare's not keen and neither am I

We've had other people's weddings the last two years on the 27th, so our birthdays got totally sidelined, so not keen for that to happen again... it's like bein Jesus, the poor mite being born on Christmas Day, he only got one lot of presents.

TRAPPED!

I had a JOYOUS afternoon yesterday... I was working from home, nipped out for some lunch, got into our communal hallway and realised I'd left my keys in the flat - both doors were locked needing a key to get out, so I was shut in the hallway until ou...

Nothing to say today

Been a bit busy, so no skiving off to watch the football today. I did watch England just about win yesterday, missed the goal. It did make the afternoon go quickly not stopping for lunch until 4pm. Have seen bits and pieces like Italy going out, out ...

Clarendon Inn

Glad we made the effort to visit this place, after reading about it in More Tales from the Tap Room, it's a great pub. Bit of a walk from Folkestone, being just past the Sandgate Hotel, but worth the effort. It's quite a small Shepherd Neame pub, but...

RE: Clarendon Inn

tried to have lunch there this (May) bank holiday.Despite getting there 5 minutes before the official food last orders they refused to even give us a sandwich.I know it was a busy time for them - but that is not what I call hospitality!...

I have a dream

No not a good dream at all, I dreamt that I sold Clare's engagement ring, not just for less than it's worth, but the money I got for it all turned out to be fake. When I was half awake this morning I thought it was true and was so upset and confused....

RE: Clarendon Inn

hello pauly, the clarendon is one of the best Folkestone/environs pubs. In my youth c. 1992-1994 the place to be for the indie type crowd in Folkestone however was The Sandgate Hotel down the hill. It was a proper scruffy dive bar/pub with a cracking...

Clare Short

Short and dumpy yet quite 'handsome' in her way she was striding with purpose form the Houses of parliament on Monday, I guess to the Governement office I was visiting.She checked me up and down and gave me the once over. I am not sure if I feel pro...

Yes, and Clare's cat since she was ten years old
