So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Down Sarf

I had a few days off, just for a break, disappeared ever so quickly, then at the weekend, we headed down to Reidski's for the weekend, where we had a wonderful time with Reidski and Jane, drank lots of wine, ate them out of house and home, played guitar hero, (courtesy of Reidski's lad - I was crap!) visited Father Bell and partner who made THE most fabulous Thai Curry both thewife and I have ever eaten, with of course Partner's fabulous fluffy rice. We do so need the recipe Andy! Now for the diet. We also listened to lots and lots of music and went to the Tower of London.

We also took a route as advised by Reidski and indeed the AA, which on the way down saw us leave home at about 10:45 am and saw us arrive in London about 11 hours later. They said it would take about 7.5 hours. Never again. On the way back standard M1/M6/A74- M74 we shaved 4 hours off that.


Whilst we were away, something really quite good happened. Good in the sense its the first time a certain Mr. Jeffries has managed this!
