smashed

image2021244994.jpgYup another sat night and a bottle of Poo and Vino, woo hoo. Mrs Fogg worked until 11pm last night and 6 hours today, boo hoo. So we had a glass or so of our fave tipple tonight with home cooked steak.

Tomorrow hopefully a day off, who knows? Still got a visit to see the folks and a wee trip to santorini soon so a chance to chill hopefully.

Me so tired now, bed methinks.

Happy Birthday Mrs Foggy

image642396087.jpgRaise a glass to Mrs Foggy, the hottest, sexiest and most beautiful woman I have ever had the pleasure to know.

In celebration I have brought Mrs Fogg to Whinstone View in a luxury lodge where we stayed last year. Jacuzzi and champagne beckon.

Happy Birthday Lorna.

Mrs Foggy had her birthday here.

Another Birthday

image221333152.jpgSo, in two days time I’ll be two years away from the big 40. How time flies. I’ve done so many crazy things over the years that I feel really lucky to have had the chance. Most memorable so far include: Meeting Mr Fogg, taking flying lessons in a Fixed wing aircraft, helicopter and glider, having a go at paragliding. Playing passenger in an Evo 8 going around a race track, retiring from work aged 34, travelling to some amazing locations- Hong Kong, Japan, 14 US states, Europe, living in an idylic location in Wales, learning the Greek language and lots lots more- some of which I’ll not put into print (but boy were they fun).

So, another year older, must plan for next year’s fun. High on the list is doing something more insane than I have achieved so far. Suggestions on a postcard please- apart from bungee jumping.

Is it just me or does time really speed up, is Mr Foggs hair disappearing at the same rate that mine is going grey and are all people just truly annoying in the Supermarket, high street etc?

Glass of wine beckons. It’s good for you don’t you know?

The Strawbelly Monster

image2042027163.jpgBeware of the Strawbelly Monster mainly seen at summer fete’s snacking on the ripe strawbs with tonnes of cream on them.

If you see this creature, hide your strawbs at all costs, she will have them.

Strawbelly Monster seen here here.

Pimms in the afternoon

image2022043640.jpgManaged to persuade Mr Fogg to try another village fête this afternoon. So glad I did. Here we are in Helperby in a very well organised fête. Lots of stalls, pubs open, open gardens and a very special pimms bar at the village hall. We were so impressed we just had to stay for a while. All told a lovely day. We are told the accronym for the bar means “domestically inept menopausal males” how fitting

I Pimm’d from here.

As Fete’s Go

image426168569.jpgThis one really really sucks!

This is the Newton on Ouse Summer Fete, which is on the school playing fields tucked away from everyone. There are no signs to it and there are no signs of life whilst there. It cost a pound to get in and when you mention there are no signs to it, you get told, oh we will change that next year! Shame cos we won’t be coming back!

The Alne fête last year was fantastic, but we missed it this year. Newton really needs to improve cos it sucks

We wished we hadn’t blogged from here.

Caddy’s Join the BBQ FuN

image534299344.jpgSo it is a nice Sunday sat here with the Caddy’s enjoying tonnes of dead animal on the monster BBQ.

A fun afternoon had by all with Mr Spike getting all the attention.

Roll on the next visit when the Caddys and the Finks come together

Monster BBQ

image1993735398.jpgHoo Har have we now got a monster BBQ to play with. We’ve gone posh with an American styled gas guzzler already sizzling with the smell of sausages, lamb chops and burgers. Ah the ease of being able to flick a switch and no charcoal smoke in yer eyes. Gonna have to plan a few BBQ parties now to get some cooking practice

So come one, come all, friends invited to the Foggy BBQ.

Like any other Airport

image503470052.jpgThis is a reminder to Mrs Fogg and me, here we are at 4.29pm on Sat 13 June in Orlando International Airport at Gate 81, awaiting our flight back to Manchester.

What a fun 2 weeks it has been, Universal Studios, Blizzard Beach, Downtown Disney, Cirque du Soleil, 5 movies (Star Trek, Terminator 4, The Hangover, Land of the Lost and Drag me to Hell), St Augustine, Medieval Times, Crazy Golf, shooting range and chillin in our pool. We managed to eat at Bubba Gump, Red Lobster, Applebees, Pizza Hut, Smokey Bones, Rainforest Cafe and O.C Whites. Oh and we still managed to drive 644 miles in our quirky Chrysler Seabring.

Now we are heading back home to plan our next holiday in September.

We Blogged whilst waiting to fly from here.

Leaving on a Jet Plane

image1414983726.jpgAnd as the Florida holiday draws to an end we look so happy at leaving 90+ degrees of heat, constant sunshine, long days, eating round the clock and really enjoying ourselves. Oh no wait, we don’t want to leave, boo hoo!

As with every trip since I met Mrs Fogg, it has been amazing sharing experiences with such a fantastic and wonderful woman (soppy I know, but you just know when you have found the perfect partner, friend, wife and love).

Cold, horrible and damp England here we come.


We didn’t want to leave here.
