Regular readers will know that this is our "travel" blog, and not for ordinary travel, at that.
This post is about one of the world's most fabulous of travel destinations - England on a summery day.
Today, Clare and I came for lunch at the John Lewis Partnership's country pad beside the Thames in Berkshire. We ate in the open and then strolled along the river under a cloudless sky.
It is a mayfly day. Two sat on my leg the whole time I was eating, and stayed there whilst I went indoors, answered nature's call, and returned.
The birds are singing and we're just off home, via a garden centre, for a barbecue in the back garden of our home. Bliss!
Health note: The tests on Clare's tum came back clear, so she's done a 3-day fast in the hope of shaking the last traces of her ailment. The original plan had us flying to Bangkok today, but now we have to make a different plan.
We'll stay home this weekend (the Monaco Grand Prix - my favourite F1 race of the year - is on anyway) and see how we are on Monday; maybe going away in the UK for a couple of days, with the hope of being ready to travel at the end of the week.
