North Yorkshire again…

Another trip to Skipton….staying in the lovely Herriots Hotel once again and also having a lovely dinner at the Angel Inn in Hetton.

Bunny can’t get over the difference in view from her normal place of work, overlooking Gatwick Airport, and that of the Gargrave office, with bunnies running on the lawn…

Mustard and creme de cassis

On her way back from Geneva, Bunny visited a friend in Dijon. I realised that it was 20 years ago that I was last there, how strange. I ha forgotten how pretty the town was, but reminded while walking on my way to Primtemps des Liqueurs at Lejay-Lagoute. The rest of the weekend sort of passed in a Kir Royal induced haze…good times :D

 

Swiss-Bunny

Bunny has been travelling quite a bit with work lately. Had a gorgeous evening at the Grand Hotel Kempinski Floor Two Restaurant, overlooking Lake Geneva and the fountain. Other than that; Geneva is very clean, well organised and has got great public transportation….which you would expect of the Swiss. Frightfully expensive tho, glad this was a work trip!

Asda-kadabra :D

Bunny is not going to slag off Asda, Asda customers or Asda staff again, well, not any time soon anyway ;)  

Ditsy blond went to self check-out, a bit of faff and stress, and forgot to pick up my cash back. Only realised when I was in store next door. Cursed myself, but thought it worth to check if against all odds somebody had handed it in. And somebody had! Been handed in to Customer Services and was returned to ditsy blond against showing my receipt. They even apologised and said this happens quite frequently due to the way the self checkout is set up… My faith in humankind has been restored. In Asda. Who would have thought…

Verta-cal?

Ooh, it seems the hotel and restaurant in Bunny’s building will be opening very soon :D Curiously named Verta, it looks to be quite stylish (and probably quite expensive too), however Bunny is hoping they will have some offers for friends and family of residents…

Seems there will be a restaurant and a bar – and a spa too :D
