The end of Summer saw us invited to the beautiful Domaine Des Andiols in Provence for a fiftieth birthday party weekend. Stunning hotel, lovely company and too much food and drink made for a wonderful trip.

In October ‘17 I joined some pals for a long weekend of golf in the Dordogne. Crisp, cold but bright weather and some interesting golf has put this trip as an annual event!

Back home and a family trip to London to watch England v Samoa was a real treat. Samoa made a good game of it and we had some great meals and fun time with the boys and a few extras.
