Plantation House Hotel Ermington Devon 2025 20th May 2025

Plantation House Hotel Ermington Devon 2025To celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary we decided to have an overnight stay and a nice meal at a hotel. About 3 miles away from where we live in Ivybridge in a little village called Ermington is a small hotel called Plantation House which although we have passed it on a number of occasions have never been inside. It has good reviews so we thought we would try it. [Read more…] about Plantation House Hotel Ermington Devon 2025

25th March 2025.  Steve (hubby) and I decided on the spur of the moment to have a couple of nights away in a nice hotel and not too far away from where we live. We came across the Talland Bay Hotel near Looe in Cornwall which looked very nice. They were also offering a package called the Boujee Foodie Spring Break which consisted of  2 nights luxurious accommodation, £60 per person dinner allowance each evening, Talland Bay No1 Gin & Tonic on arrival, delicious full Cornish breakfast each morning and tickets to the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

Installing a new Kitchen Using Keith Holder KitchensInstalling a new Kitchen Using Keith Holder Kitchens

We have lived in our current home for 31 years and have had the kitchen revamped a couple of times by just replacing the door fronts.  However I have always dreamt of having a granite worktop so after some serious consideration we decided to go the whole hog and rip out whole of the kitchen and start again. Well the units were looking a bit tired and the carcasses were very worn in places and of course this would allow me to have my dream granite worktops.

Clumberdoodle ArchieOf all the posts I have written for my blog this is the hardest one of all to have to write. For all of you who have been following Archie and his antics from the day we brought home as a 9 week old puppy to the present date October 9th 2024.  These have included his progress from a bouncy naughty puppy, his birthdays, Christmases (he loved opening presents – including ours)  and all of the many happy holidays we went on,  but there will be no more.

Vospers Fiat Service Failure

Fabio my Fiat 500eVospers Fiat Service Failure

I have had Fabio (Fiat All Battery Irresistible One) my Fiat 500e since 2021.  My husband has had an electric car for many years and he tried to convert me to going electric.  However the only electric car I would consider was a Fiat 500, as I had previously owned 3 petrol Fiat 500’s and loved them, but as the electric version was only manufactured for sale in England in 2021 I had to wait.

So in 2021 Fabio was born to my specifications. A La Prima in Celestial Blue with an added extra of an opening sunroof. We bonded immediately and I love him to bits and he has behaved himself causing me no problems until April 2024. [Read more…] about Vospers Fiat Service Failure
