I love Hampton Court. Back in 2019, the hubby and I were members of Historic Royal Palaces and tried to visit all the English palaces in one year. We managed it and we have since visited Hampton Court many more times. When the hubby found out they were holding a light trail for Christmas, he [...]

It's autumn. It's October - and it's Halloween. We don't really do much for this holiday, if it can really be called that. One time we bought a box of Celebration chocolates, expecting children to come trick or treating. No one rang the door bell, so we just ate the chocolates ourselves. This year we [...]
