WOW. Lasan was incredible, no wonder it won both Gordon Ramsay’s F Word and BBC’s Great British Menu.  THe food was Indian with a twist!  It’s not your stodgy curries that leave you regretting your dinner choice for days, it’s classy! For starter we went with the sharing platter to try a little of everything which included lamp chops, chicken and even salmon. My main course was…

A short drive away from our B&B in Alton we found The Bulls Head Inn, and we loved it!  We were craving a proper home cooked meal and that is certainly what we got.

Chungy is on the left, Chess is on the right.  They’re sisters, both a year and a half and are Staffordshire Bull Terriers.  They seriously make our house a home. The present I have decided to give them is a…

I have a serious passion for music, and an even bigger passion for preserving memories; enter Vinyl Clocks. This is one of the best ideas I have seen in a very long time!  You pick a song/album that means something to and the clever people at Vinyl Clocks turn a record of it into a clock.  Yes it’s genius isn’t it?!
