Wave upon Wave (June)
Wine and Fish. A great topic of discussion and one that I am very excited about exploring with you all today. I have decided to go traditional with my pairings here as I believe that realistically, it is difficult to go against the grain. They are traditionally perfect pairings for a reason - let us not forget that. The glorious weather that we have been having over the past few days has also got me into the summer spirit. Let’s be honest it is June, so we should be feeling summery anyway!! At some point this summer when you are...
Summertime (and the livin’ is easy) (May)
‘Summertime’ has got to be one of my favourite songs, so I felt I had to title one of my blogs with the famous lyrics, now that we are well on the way there! The year has finally turned in my opinion; things are looking good for us all in the UK right now. Shops are open, restaurants, pubs and bars are open outdoors and even though the English weather is never kind, I amongst many others have been able to sit outside with people and have a drink and/or meal. As we start to look forward to the summer,...
Harry’s Birthday Favourites (April)
It’s here!!!! My birthday is tomorrow (3rd April) and even though we are still very restricted on movement I cannot help but think that things are going to get better. Realistically I think they are already getting better - here’s hoping that it continues into summer and we kick this disease into touch. As it is my birth month I have gone a little over the top with this month’s selection… which I am definitely not sorry about. So, this month we have a theme; ‘oooh’ I hear you say well ‘oooh’ away because it is going to be exciting!...
Spring has Sprung (March)
I know it doesn’t feel like it, but I promise it is coming. I know it is still cold and we’re wearing coats outdoors - some are even still wearing gloves! It is coming I promise, the kiss of that lovely sun will bless our faces once again and when it does we’ll have a great glass of wine with it at the same time. Out of the four seasons Spring is my 3rd favourite. I hear you ask, ‘Why only third, Harry?’, well to be honest I love Summer (favourite) and Winter (2nd favourite) for completely contrasting reasons and...
Valentines Delight (February)
Well well well… the romantic holiday is upon us. Whether you are in a brand-new relationship or have been happily (I hope!) married for many a moon this holiday is important for almost everyone. However, if you’re single then just buy yourself something nice! There’s room for everyone in my mind on this lovely day. The thing is, when you’re single you don’t really get into Valentines day considering the entire festivity was created for couples to celebrate being together. However, being single myself for this one, I have found that rather than curse the card company that so-called ‘invented’...
