"I didnt think anyone would see me trying to ram them up my jumper officer......."

Well it did say "Grab and Go' on the counter.......I thought thats what it meant.

We went away fpr the weekend with Debbie and Leigh who we went with to Venice last year. They were so excited when they happened upon this bed and breakfast. Its a hauntingly magickal place to stay right up high in the middle of the Peak District. Its a very barren place and it snowed too. The lady who owns it has given the entire house a King Arthur and his Knights theme. Everywhere Carol Knight has gone to the minutest detail and the property is full of gargoyles, dragons, wizards...its like walking into a miniature castle. I for one was in my element and wish to go back again. There are only two bedrooms: St Gawains room and Merlin's room. The food is excellent also. They do say "a change is as good as a rest" and this small break did us both the power of good.

Oh this room with en suite was so comfortable and warm with duck feather filled duvets and pillows and all furniture 'distressed' to give it a true medieval feeling. There were paintings on the wall of the Lady of Shallot, and the poem The Lady of Shallot is my favourite piece of prose. Thomas Mallory's La Morte D'Arthur is a wonderful work to read and study should you wish to read about Arthur and his knights of the round table. We shall look forward to visiting this place again. Its not too far and a trip out for the day driving through the rural countryside and have a lovely meal is a jolly good idea.

This was my Christmas treat to myself...my faux fur hat. Oh Its so lovely and warm and you dont want to take it off! Of course all glamour goes out of the window when you take it off!!!
