It was an early start, up and out the door by 7.30am to get down to Kent for a harvest tour at Biddenden Vineyard. We headed away for the weekend with our friends Kate & Mal to sample some of England’s finest in Kent, one of the country’s best wine producing regions.

3 days to go until I go on my 6th holiday of the year! Am trying to get all my school marking and planning done so I don't have to worry about it when I get back, but I keep getting sidetracked and doing things like checking the weather report on Faro and, um, writing this blog! Ok I really am going to do some work now! ... read more
