This time last year...

My hubby often hears me say, "This time last year...." and once again, I said it today!

This time last year we escaped the family madness for a few days all on our own.

We stayed in Robin Hoods Bay at a lovely place called The Wayfarer Bistro and Guesthouse. I remember it very fondly because it was the perfect escape. The restaurant was superb, I remember my chicken dish, to be the best I have had. We enjoyed leisurely beach and cliff top walk, an afternoon beer in the cosy pub while reading books, and browsing the many quirky little shops. It also goes without saying we did some fossil hunting.

I would love to try this little place and see the Northern Lights...

No sea in sight, but lovely places to stay!

We rarely have a break anywhere other than by the sea, though due to time, work and juggling everything, a little break in the Cotswold's may be an option.

Christmas is coming...

With work finished and hubby on hols we are looking forward to a family Christmas. Though we would love a few days away, on our own to relax. A little b&b or hotel by the sea so we don't have to cook another thing would be perfect....
