as taverna’s and bar’s close and we say good bye to our summer friends it’s now that we have the time to sit and enjoy a coffee in the late summer sun and reflect on the season with friends we haven’t seen over the busy summer time. Guests regularly ask ‘what do you do in the winter’ my reply being ‘ what we don’t get the chance to do in the summer’ hobbies get pushed to one side over the summer, our homes and gardens feel a little neglected and now is our chance to travel if we so wish.

For the time-being I’m just enjoying the slower pace that the winter allows.
