Bank holiday no.1 of 3 in May

Mayday mayday, there are 3 bank holidays in May for us in the UK this year. One too many I think, not sure we really need one next week for the Coronation, after all that is on the Saturday… just saying. Anyway, the sun is shining so there’s no reason to be grumpy.

Windsor is getting busy

Hello friends. We’ve been waiting for the crowds to hit Windsor this week and today we’ve noticed it’s started getting pretty busy with traffic and pedestrians.

Goodbye Queen, Hello King

Hello everyone. We didn’t expect to lose The Queen this week, but there it is. Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth II, the only monarch I’ve known in my lifetime (not that I knew her, of course.

Going out out

So, in the words of Micky Flanagan, last night we went out out. Not just out, but proper out out. We went out into Windsor town centre on a Saturday night, with some mitigations of course. Firstly we decided to cycle into town as we both wanted to drink and don’t feel comfortable going backContinue reading “Going out out”
