Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

[Armaghtoffee]

Always a favourite but not been for donkey's years. My nephew ( here visiting Dad) reckons Carlisi on Dale Street is excellent but says you might have to book Reasonably priced too.

Looks lovely and so close to where I’m staying but one fatal flaw- no pizza means no happy kids ?

Amazing creatures. There’s something genuinely mysterious about them.
Especially when you see footage of those gigantic ones breaching the surface covered in barnacles and that.

I was chuffed to bits just to see some seals basking int he shallows off the coast of Llandudno last year, Can’t imagine seeing a whale up close!

Wow

Been many times , often pre match destination for a nosebag.

For us it would either be straight after the game or Sunday before home. Not a difficult dilemma to be fair.

What, an Italian with no pizza! Madness. Nephew has just gone home. I'll have words.... ?

I like Piccolino or San Carlo just around the corner on Castle St.
San Carlo is expensive but the lunch time menu is very good value and always the chance of seeing a player or 2 in there. Been a few times and seen Coleman , Fellaini ( spoke a bit of French with him and he was very friendly ) and some time ago Suarez who of course I assiduously ignored.

What time is your flight home? If you have time go to Marantos on Lark Lane. Its on the way to the airport. My favourite place of all. Saw Willy Russell in there once and we had our wedding reception in there.

Have you tried Casa Italia on Stanley St?

The go to place in my youth , yes that long ago, but always a good scoff.

Think it’s about 8pm or so. I know where Lark Lane is so that’s a start!

Well that was a bit of a mixed bag. The display was practically over our head and we deffo had the best seats in the house (only maybe 200 people max on our hill). Wouldn't be happy if I'd travelled into Falmouth. On the downside there were only 6 planes for some reason so the formation flying was out of sync. And there was only one solo flyer rather than 2 so we didn't get what is the mist exciting part of the display.

I tried my best to get some pics for you but it was a nightmare. I have a 3 second countdown on my phone so after I'd pressed go I had to try and second guess where the planes were going. Plus it was bright sunshine which always makes it worse. Anyway there's a couple to post and if you zoom in you can just about see the planes ?

Be careful in the sun

I wasn't half way through before a family of wasps descended on me. They've been a pain lately. Must be a nest around somewhere. So finished off inside. Don't spend more than an hour or so a day in the sun and usually later afternoon when it's a bit cooler.
