Long Sutton

There is one thing to make sure of when you are invited around to a BBQ with Steve and Sara, and that is that you get to the food before Steve, otherwise you will be very disappointed with the meagre amounts left!

Sara had worked very hard and produced a lovely selection of wonderful salads and accoutrements, and after lots of helpful advice from me, and an intensive lesson in the fine art in cooking over hot coals, Steve managed to serve up some very passable hot offerings!

With Daniel Craig only doing one more Bond movie the search is on for the new “007”. If Barbara Broccoli is reading this I think I might be able to make next summer, and Steve says that he would be more than happy to stand in as my stunt double!

Watch out Blofeld………

It’s amazing, however old you are water pistols on a hot sunny day are still great fun!

Luckily for us we had our own gun runner and Fraser supplied all the weapons while Steve supplied the ammunition !

I have to say Julian, Fraser’s dad, took quite a long while to get changed…………he must have played this game before methinks!

That night at home we had a visitor in the garden………on his way to a stag night I imagine!

Bank Holiday 7th May 2018

A promising start to the day……………

for my return to competitive golf for the first time in nearly 2 years. As you can probably tell from the lack of T.V coverage I didn’t win!………..but we did have a great day.!

NOTE TO ALL DRIVERS OF HGV LORRIES

When travelling into Romsey please can you check the height of your vehicle compared to the height of the local bridges………….. otherwise if you get it wrong this can cause a lot of inconvenience to the local residents who are driving into town to get their dad’s medication, amongst the many others!
