The title of this blog should really be "Saving the Wine Boat" – picture the scene....we were just stood outside the front doors of Reception having a moment of peace and quiet after the folk band had departed when a large bottle of wine cruised past.........After rubbing my eyes a couple of
I'd like to say that I've been asked to do some pretty unusual things in the past, but actually I'd be lying – I've had a pretty ordinary life doing normal sort of stuff – so it was quite a surprise to be asked to do something really rather unusual . Two of the nicest people I know asked
There's a big announcement to be made today – the cygnets have hatched! We've all been watching the swans on the island for weeks now – they have a deluxe "des res" on our very exclusive island and have been sitting patiently. I've not seen them yet, although I have reports in

The title says it all! After a day spent with "Overwater On Tour" – a group of our moorers heading up the Llangollen for a spring cruise, I'm hooked! I've always loved boats – as a child we spent all our holidays sailing off the North Wales Coast, even venturing as far as the Isle of
I never thought I'd spend so much time deliberating the issue of my missing number 8 but since it seems to be generating funds for Comic Relief I can't say I mind.
