As it’s Father’s Day, Ann and I drove up to the oft-visited Fortescue Arms in Billingborough to meet-up with Denis and Bev for lunch. We took the XKR and it returned 23.5mpg for the round trip of 80-or-so miles. Not bad!
Ann, Denis and, oh, the XKR!
Denis was in good health, as was Bev who’s become pretty skilled with her new Nikon camera – see shots below.
The food and service at the Pub was, as always, superb, and we had a great time.
Scrummy Menu
Banoffee Cream Pie – One of their specialities
A lovely drive back in the sunshine, arriving home around 3.30 – just in time to take care of a couple of priorities: gardening and wash the car – no prizes for guessing which one I opted for!!

I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
