Trick well and truly missed. "Winkles from Whitstable to Whitby", the title could have read, resplendent in alliteration glory. Only we didn't stop in the seafood-famous Whitby to pursue the perfect heading, but instead maintained a northern course the other week en route from Lincolnshire to Stirling, aiming for Bamburgh and it's magnificent rock topping...

Seafood Si: The Lobster Shack, Whitstable
Every family has it's favourite phrases don't they? There's a very apt one here at Moregeous HQ which began with my darling and long lost Mia Cat, has been passed onto Builder Cat and is also totally applicable to me: "Prawn Whore".

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
Any excuse for a trip to Scotland! I was given an option for a meeting in London or one up in Glasgow this week and felt we'd ticked off the M6 south by travelling down to Interiors UK in Birmingham, so Team Moregeous headed north for a couple of days. It's been a hectic start... Continue Reading →
