Sitting watching elephants bathe in Chitwan National Park in Nepal from a beautiful rooftop restaurant whilst enjoying a cold glass of wine...but am pg (so no wine!) and those travelling days are long gone!

The Royal Jamaican Hotel, Montego Bay. I'm on the beach, laying in a hammock, a glass of 'Monkey Special' in my hand, the sun, the gentle breeze ....... ohhhhhhhhhh.

And I wouldn't have this bl%%dy cough.

A monkey special has Banana, milk, tia maria and dark rum in it.

Think of a grown-ups banana milkshake.

wasn't sure what the result would be so tried it - and the answer was, high up on the South Downs Way, which I walked part of a year ago. sound of the wind, chalky fields blanched with frost, soft green/brown/orange landscape. i love the downs in winter.

acnebride · 20/12/2005 14:38

3 years ago - lordy time flies

QueensSpeechEagle · 20/12/2005 14:39
