My wife, son, and I visited England a few years ago during winter. It was a very enjoyable trip.
Conversing with and reading about daily life from the UK recently has me thinking about the wonderful breakfasts that we had. And, Brown’s Pie Shop in Lincoln. Along with the cheese shop on Steep Hill for lunch. And, the pubs all around.
I missed the answer to the grand prize quiz night question by 5 grams. Something about a cake recipe from one of your famous bakers. I tried to relate it to bread, which I do, and came up 5 grams short. Missed out on a lot of beer for the prize.
Locals kept cheating by trying to help us out. It was a pretty good time.
We look forward to another visit.

California, about a two hour drive north of San Francisco, on the coast, on a ridge with redwoods. It’s a nice place. We have been here twenty years or so. Came for work and stayed.
Very rural. Takes about one and a half hours to get to a town. We have a small store, two restaurants. One expensive and bad, the other inexpensive and also bad.
So if we want to go out for a meal we go to a neighbor’s house.
That is one of the drawbacks. It is sort of exciting when we head to town since we get to eat TOWN FOOD! we all look forward to that. Someone else makes it and cleans up afterwards. Heaven for us.
We are both born and raised in California. To me a yard is something people in town have. Small and fenced in. I haven’t lived in town since 1976 when I left my parents home.
Where we are now people call this a garden if that makes sense.
Hi daveh121, Lovely to hear you enjoyed England so much and we hope you can soon plan another visit. I can highly recommend trying one of the other countries that make up the UK too. All are beautiful and I bet all of them will make you very welcome and offer you another set of local pubs to visit and their own delicacies to try.
It's so good to think back to happy holidays at a time like this. A good reminder that, one day, life will return to normal.
Take care and please take great care to be safe. 🌸
