Frenchy's has become our new regular haunt. Food is great and the girls are in love with the French waiter who I must admit is quite a dish !

Helping Xenia setup her new iPhone 16 Pro

Xenia came round to my house to setup the phone. Her previous phone was an iPhone 6 so it was a massive upgrade. We then went to a local Waverton cafe to celebrate and she treated me to lunch by swiping with her newly installed Apple Pay on her phone!

Frenchy's Cafe with Xenia and Jane

A wonderful French cafe to chill out in with friendly staff with delightful French accents. I had my usual, Goats cheese quiche and salad, followed by my favourite, raspberry tart. Delicious as always!

I always enjoy catching up with Chris. 

Cattle Baron with mum, Mike, Jo, Matt and Ivor

The steak (Fillet Madagascar) was absolutely divine. It was so wonderful that Ivor was able to join us.  He hadn't seem mum for so long and also loved chatting to Mike.

Email to Michael after getting back from Cape Town

Hi there Michael

I've just got back from a wonderful month in South Africa. It was so great to spend quality time with my family. I also got to do lots of hiking with my sister and friend, Russell, including an epic hike in The Cedarberg.

One of the most exciting things for me was getting back into my bird photography in a big way. South Africa has incredible birds. I was yet again bowled over by my new camera and how easy it made it to get wonderful shots of birds in focus. I wanted to share one specific highlight which you can see it here.  It was a priceless experience for me and one that my camera allowed me to capture easily and immortalise. Once again, I'm so thankful to you for making it possible.

It would be lovely to meet up for lunch or coffee sometime if you are free and catch up. I do so enjoy our conversations.

By the way, Antarctica is happening now in March. We're doing it a bit later because we're going on a longer trip including South Georgia and the Falklands to.  A dream.

Talk soon
