I like to be organised. I try to be organised. I am not very organised. I do, however, keep a diary. It is the only way anything in my life that is meant to happen will actually happen. If it's written in the diary it is THE LAW. If it ain't in, it ain't happening. Sadly this once meant due to a minor entry error I turned up for a flight a day late because that is what the diary said, and who am I to argue? My diary is also pretty big.

Relax dude, we’re on holiday…
Having embarked upon our last trip of the year Mr B and I were very much hoping for a couple of days of relaxation. We have deserted our Devon homeland in favour of his Brother’s Tuscan retreat to drink nice wine, soak up some sun and gorge ourselves on Italian deliciousness. What could be more relaxing?
