Tasting Paris – Clover Grill
It has been suggested to me that writing about food and restaurants is something I could do more of. Or any of, really! So I decided I would create a somewhat regular blog called ‘Tasting X’ talking about different places I have eaten apropos to some sort of review, I guess. I’m going to look …
Border Crossings – the Bad
Last week I wrote about some of the better border crossings I’ve experienced. Today I’m going to talk about the less good experiences. So, I need to start with a caveat – I’ve never really been stuck with a really bad border crossing. What would that be? Well, probably one where I didn’t even get …

A Chateau Stay in Normandy
My wife was very adamant before we left Australia this year, she wanted to stay in a Chateau in France. Not just any chateau, her friend who lived in Normandy had a friend also in Normandy who ran a chateau as a B&B. And so it was that we would have a night in Chateau …
Paris Through My Lens – Part Two
Again we're looking at Paris as I saw it a couple of months back now, but obviously a completely different set of pictures. Again I look into the Musee D'Dorsay - and particular a couple of paintings by Mr Vincent Van Gogh (one will mean a bit to Doctor Who fans out there!). Then there's …
