Finally had a holiday

Well, more of a mini break really, we, like everyone else, have missed so much this year, our 35th wedding anniversary in April, our holiday in June, and my 60th birthday, also in June, none of which we were able to celebrate, so we’ve just got back from two nights away in Woodstock, of course we went to Blenheim palace yesterday for the day, and we were fortunate with the weather as it was lovely,( for this time of year) , a fantastic place and, if you haven’t been I would recommend it, we stayed at the feathers hotel, and virtually had the place to ourselves, lovely room, and the meals were superb, we haven’t stayed in a proper hotel for years as we normally go self catering so it was nice to be spoilt, obviously with the COVID-19 there were a few restrictions at Blenheim, but they dealt with it very well, I particularly enjoyed the interactive bit ( I won’t spoil it if anyone is thinking of visiting) it was very well done,
So at least we can say, we’ve had a break...

Good for you Primus1.

We haven't had even a short break for a couple of years at least what with one thing or another. I can't say that I'm missing holidays though.

Thanks Primus, at least Covid isn't too high there. We are staying in a B&B Saturday evening & going to the Malvern flea market Sunday, then home after.

Glad you've been able to fit a short break in, Primus.... it all helps to recharge the batteries.

Re: Finally had a holiday

Nice to hear that people are or have been off enjoying themselves, especially in these virus days. I'm almost envious.

The last time I had a proper holiday was in 2003. At that point I realised it was just too much hassle hanging around in airports. Stuff it

I do wish I still had the boat though. It'd be wonderful to just get in and tootle off for as long or as short I liked. Peace, tranquillity, fresh air, wildlife, freedom ... magic!
