If I lived in Rachel's World this blog would be entitled Saturday and it's white wine Afternoon....we were due to travel over to Sheffield to celebrate an old friend's 50th birthday celebrations but were let down by a dog sitter, so in a fit of sulking we dusted ourselves off and took the trailer trash train to Llandudno for a spot of lunch at Osborne House
After a bottle of wine each we sorted out some of the wedding plans, spoke to the maître d' about the wedding meal and got into the spirit of things.
I had a nice sleep on the train home .....

Just look at the animated Chris! Wow...such feeling and emotion! His excitement is palpable!
ReplyDeleteJane x
you are starting this wedding thing out right!
ReplyDeletehe's a clean old man, isn't he? (50 points if you know the movie from where it came!)
ReplyDeleteI am gathering my virtual confetti to throw when you say your I DOs!
A hard day's night? X
Deleteding ding ding, you win!
DeleteI LOVE that photo.
ReplyDelete"Phoarrrrrr!" he scrubs up well... ....
ReplyDeletethat's some serious decor......lunchtime drinking so delightfully louche!!
ReplyDeleteOh, you know how to live!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry the dog sitter let you down. I wish I could take care of your dogs. I would kiss Winnie.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Me too Janie Junebug, I would have cuddled George, William and Meg while you kissed Winnie!
ReplyDeleteSorry your sitter bombed. The Osborne House looks like a very nice place for your wedding meal. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very nice place to dine. Making plans are most always fun. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteFor the second choice of what to do that day the Osborne House looks rather spiffy !
ReplyDeleteI will be throwing some confetti at the computer on that day too !
cheers, parsnip
I love that photo, too!
ReplyDeleteGood recovery from your disappointment. Two bottles of wine can be very efficacious.
ReplyDeleteIf I may be so bold...how old is Chris? I think you shared that but I forgot. That picture is humorous.
ReplyDeleteHe's seven years younger than me
DeleteIn the words of Mae West, "you're only as old as the man you feel!"
Deletewow wee that place looks posh!
ReplyDeleteSome days, being flexible is the key to happiness, and a bottle of wine, the bottle of wine might work without being flexible. We are looking forward to the live blog of the wedding. Wish we could all be there.
ReplyDeletePlan B sounds like it might have been even better than Plan A.
ReplyDeleteLovely dining! Good alternate plan.
ReplyDeleteWoo Hoo. Excitement building.
ReplyDeleteThings are moving along, in spite of I don't know what.
ReplyDeleteHe is so adorable, honestly......
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed your day although you were let down by the dog sitter.
ReplyDeleteHope you have organised the Irish priest to sing Hallelujah at the ceremony! YouTube sensation I read!
I'm glad you didn't sulk and stay home. I am sorry the dog sitter let you down, i'd have been glad to pop by and help if i lived closer. While Janie and Jan were seeing to the dogs, i'd pet Albert.
ReplyDeleteIf they ever want to get rid of that mirror, would you pass on my details!
ReplyDeleteA bottle of wine each. Sounds like a perfect Saturday.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm I see. So did the doggies enjoy sniffing and weeing around Llandudno then?
ReplyDeletethings done off the cuff can be very rewarding but can chris take all the excitement looks like he is ready to bubble over with it
ReplyDeleteA bottle of wine EACH!! I would have been comatose under the table and probably wake up in hospital in an intensive care unit.
ReplyDeleteHave I missed you telling the date of your wedding, or is it still under wraps? Osborne House looks " posh", should be a good do!
ReplyDeleteChris looks quite at home in that tart's boudoir. Truthfully, I thought he looked very lordly. You inspired me to refer to the "tart's boudoir."
ReplyDeleteIs that Chris' party face.
ReplyDeleteChris looks a tad wine sozzled there.
ReplyDeleteJohn, if those Easter egg candles don't arrive this week I'm going to have to go to the post office and find out what's going on...they were supposed to have arrived 7 to 10 days after I mailed them which was March 17.
What a grand spot for sulking...glad you made a good day of it after the dog sitter spoiler...oh the drama in that face...
ReplyDeleteWe must go back there, the food is brilliant, even better than the décor!!
ReplyDeleteA bottle of wine each? I am surprised you could find your way to the train station. This comes from a non-drinker.
