The days are getting longer, the daffs are peeping through the soil and the cat'll venture out into the garden more than once a day... Spring must be on it's way! Mr M and I try to get a weekend UK break in around this time of year, somewhere we can drive to in a... Continue Reading →
A winter detour through snowy Ayrshire
So glad we decided to take the long road and have a little mooch through Ayrshire and over the A731 instead of simply heading south from Glasgow home to Manchester. That said, driving through the blizzard conditions with broken car heating wasn't exactly fun (no decent pics as Mr M refused to stop in case... Continue Reading →
An evening’s stay at the luxury Blythswood Square, Glasgow

Greece : A question of trust on a Cretan getaway in Plakias Bay
