It’s September, and September means Ajay and Ashwina set out for their annual holiday. This year was no different. We don’t take a holiday in August to avoid the mad rush and crazy prices. The raging pandemic made it a much easier decision this year. Ashwina booked a cottage called the Higher Brownstone Farm in …
Our last holiday was in Somerset, but that was so long go I’ve almost forgotten about it. We had a holiday planned in November 2020 but had to cancel it as the UK went into another lockdown on the day of the holiday. Although there was a lot of uncertainty on the horizon, we took …
This update has been on the charts for more than two months. While everyone knows that this year has been unpredictable, Ashwina and I have tried to get out when we could. Unfortunately, not as frequently as we hoped. On a bright and not so warm October weekend, Ashwina and I booked our entry to …
We’ve been home since our last trip to Dover a few days before the UK went into lockdown. That’s about 4 months of being at home and 6 months since our last holiday. Needing a much-deserved break, we filed for a week off and booked a National Trust Cottage in Somerset. As the UK has …

We’ve typically taken a holiday in September but due to several different reasons, Ashwina and I decided to book the first week of October for a holiday. Destination: Isle of Wight. This post has been due for two months, but, as they say, better late than never! I had been looking forward to this holiday …
The last weekend was a long one cause of Easter and we’ve typically not done much on the Easter Monday bank holiday. However, Seema and Rodney, who were in London and bunking with us, had already booked tickets to visit Bath and Stonehenge. So, Ashwina and I also tagged along. We arrived at Victoria before …
When it rains… look for Rainbows When it’s dark… look for Stars If there is a Part I, there has to be at least a Part II. What I didn’t mention in the last post was how big the cottage was. We knew this place sleeps 10 people between the 6 bedrooms. Besides that, there …
It isn’t often that one gets to live in a lighthouse. Ashwina wanted to find out what it feels like to live in one.
