Paignton: The Gurkha Curry! (27.8.2025)

This is a very sought after place with tables having to be booked weeks in advance. The cuisine is Nepalese (Gurkha) and is exceptionally good. The children enjoyed the rice and poppadoms – and it was a good experience for them. I was shocked to learn that the average price of a burger nowadays is around £8! Can you believe that! Even curries are not that cheap nowadays and so I am grateful we were guests and not hosts. As my mother is bed-bound abs could not attend in person – we ordered a curry to take home for her! We had a wonderful time surrounded by our family.

Anthem of the Seas – Cruise to ‘Nowhere’ – 11th-15th of July, 2021!

This is a selection of the hundreds of photographs our family took whilst aboard the ‘Quantum Class’ Cruise-Liner ‘Anthem of the Seas’ – which is owned by Royal Caribbean International! This was part of the ‘999’ give-away deal which allocated ‘free’ four-day cruises to 999 members of the British NHS, Police, Prison Officers, Fire-Brigade, Army and other members of the Emergency Services! This was a ‘thank you’ by Royal Caribbean for the bravery and determination of the ‘Blue-Light’ Card holders who kept the UK safe during the ongoing Covid19 pandemic! My partner – Gee Wyles – won this cruise as she has served on the NHS frontline from day 1 of the emergency as a London Midwife!
