Two Travel Blogs

The first is An Englishman in Italy, An Englishman, his Sicilian wife and an Italian / English Dictionary, which is all pretty self explanatory.

His last two posts are on Marmite, a challenge issued by the next blogger and a Red Cross parcel from Blighty that has all the necessary items for an Englishman to surive. I wish someone would send me one of those...

You will also find things like this:

His first attempt at growing wine trees.

The next blog, I'm not sure if they are ex-pats yet, but describes the adventures in buying a home away from Blighty.






Our Adventure in Croatia

"Having lived most of our lives in a chaotic, cosmopolitan, exciting, attractive, great European capital city like London, we often wondered what if we could own a property abroad, where we could spend lots of holidays and “quality time” in a warmer climate, where the sky is not always grey and overcast." - From the About page.

Stories cover adventures with policemen, taxi drivers and Google's street view car, so there's plenty to read here. 

That's their house, the one with the red shutters and the washing outside.

Both blogs well worth reading. 

A blog about drinks

boydrinksworld is a blog about drinks. It's an in depth look at all sorts, well written and often humurous. It looks at drinks from the side, the side we don't often think about.

"Gentlemen of a century ago expressed their identity through the gentlemanly arts.  Drinking and making cocktails for friends is to me part and parcel of the expressing the gentlemanly arts."

If you like foodie photos

Cool blog found.

life is always sweeter and yummier through a lens

Lots of food and restaurant photos from around the Boston area, and some further afield. The photos are quality, according to Bunny, not always the food.

One of her fab photos from Sushi Island...
