Oh I just wrote a long post and found out I had to sign in!!!
All ok... weather hot.... hotel lovely and comfy!!

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes was a good trip down to Portsmouth and over to IOW. We went to Cowes and had a big bowl of rather peppery carrot & coriander soup with bread. Onto Newport for a while then booked into hotel. Walked into Old Shanklin for some supper.... I had a smoked Haddock & spinach Florentine and a dessert.

Ordered a veggie breakfast this morning... yummy!

The smoked haddock florentine looks yummy!

Have a lovey day Janet!

And....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Sounds like a lovely first day

Happy happy birthday today

Enjoy breakfast

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks... has been a nice day except Joseph ate scrambled eggs and smoked salmon for breakfast... 1/2hr later he was feeling really ill. He thinks it was the salmon. He's seen many toilets today and was sick too. Poor Joseph.
We did have a nice lunch at East Cowes at the Marina.
It was a beetroot & goats cheese burger etc.
Weather is hot and walking has caused my ankles & knees to swell so we came back early so I could rest. I did all the driving today... which may not have helped.

Oh dear, a good rest and hopefully you will both be well by tomorrow x

Oh no can you complain to the hotel in case others were ill as well ?

I hope it didn't ruin your birthday and you had some cake

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes we're generally having a lovely time. Just want to do lots but not here for very long

We called in at a big craft place this morning and bought 2 slices of chocolate brownies with peanuts!! We ate them this afternoon... and later had some scones, raspberry jam and clotted cream. Joseph skipped the cream but I didn't!!

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes will tell the hotel about it.

 

[janetelizabeth]

Lactose intolerant... badly!!

Lactose intolerant... badly!!

I also have to have scones with no cream unfortunately

But they still taste yummy

I'm glad you've had birthday desserts

 

[janetelizabeth]

Slept really well last night.... even though it's a latex mattress!! Looking forward to a cooler day though. Hoping to visit Carisbrook castle.
No sure how Joseph's feeling as he's still snoozing but I'm sure he'll be better than yesterdsy.

 

[ginlin]

Hope Joseph is feeling ok, and have a fab day!

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks Lynne.
Thankfully ankles are not swollen this mornings... big relief.

Have a great day Janet, its going to be warm here so washing out already

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Is still looking grey here but I believe the weather is gorgeous down south and where you are
You chose a nice few days

 

[dsjb99]

sadly its very grey here! hope its better where you are Janet and that things are going better today

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks... Yes was a cooler breeze today but still plenty of sunshine.
We went to Carisbrook castle which was so interesting. Then onto
Godshill for some lunch. Finally down to Ventnor. We've walked a lot again today... I sort of ricked my ankle (3rd time) walking on something uneven!! My shoes are not the most supportive footwear.

 

[janetelizabeth]

Lunch... cauliflower & leek crumble. Downsized cream tea... only one scone!!
And a new bag that Joseph bought me as a present in Godshill.
Thankfully he's felt much better today. We talked to the hotel lady at breakfast but couldn't really identify what had upset him.
