Some bloggers turn out to be exactly what you expect in real life
Tonight I met David from Travel Penguin (https://travelpenguin.blogspot.com/) and his husband Jay
In a whistle stop visit from Washington, via Ireland and London we all met up for a wonderful meal at The Castle in Conwy
A lovely chatty evening.
I'm off today and tomorrow before another run of nights and was only thinking of what to do tomorrow when Chic Eleanor drove past in her sporty red sports number
" Darling John " she crooned out of the window " Gin and tonics Friday teatime , over a bowl of chips ..how about it?" And with a fling of a pashmina corner she was gone!
What fun
What a great photo of you both! Always fun to meet blogging buddies in real life!

Ah, how great. I had the privilege of meeting David and Jay in Washington, D.C. a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteI have met some wonderful people from blogging and many more I wish I had met.
ReplyDeleteHmmm... Washington... is that Washington State, USA... They are having an outbreak of the Coronavirus there John...............
ReplyDeleteI like David's face-he looks a good friend John.I can see Chic Eleanor in my minds eye graciously trailing scarf and gorgeous perfume as she drives along the country lanes x
ReplyDeleteIts fun to meet other bloggers. I think Chic Eleanor must be a little like Lady Penelope off Thunderbirds.

ReplyDeletemy husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the Internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr jeffrey can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Two days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr jeffrey . If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. This is his E-mail:
