Our trip to the Trafford Centre.

Chez Moi.

Last Saturday Rebecca and I went to southport to do some shopping and stopped for lunch at this lovely little French restaurant called Chez Moi. was We decided not to have the Frogs Legs and plumped for the Coq au Vin as the main course. Starter Shrimps in garlic & butter sauce served with Melba Toast. All very enjoyable.
Definitely worth another visit.

New hat.

I've just bought a new hat. I saw it on Ebay and I am really pleased with it. There is something about a new hat and the feeling when you wear it for the first time.
It's a 'pork-pie hat, black. The type that 'Pop-eye Doyle' played by Gene hackman,
wore in The French Connection. Rebecca and the girls think I am going through some sort of age crisis.

Snow and more snow.

What a lovely time we're having with all this beautiful snow. I'm on my way to work at Map, on the right, at the Maharishi European Sidhaland. The Dome can just be seen in the centre of the photo.

Feeling much better today and went with Rebecca(wife) today to Parbold along the canal.

Well that was a lovely Christmas, but now I don't feel too well and have spent a couple of days resting and recuperating. I think it was the fresh-ground coffee. It tasted fantastic, but I think I had too much and it didn't agree with me.

A white Christmas.
