Down in the tube station at lunchtime

Our trip to Down Street went very well thanks for asking, feel very lucky to have had a bit of a spy around. It's not normally open, but someone has to go down there and do regular inspections so we managed to tag onto the back of that. The station w...

Christmas roundup

Had a GREAT Christmas break in Folkestone, quite a lot of sitting in and relaxing, playing dominoes, watching DVDs (lots of series one, why did Doyle leave? He's WHAT???) and remarkably not eating out once. Normally a trip there means restaurants fo...
