Dinner at the Roodee Race Course Chester

Well we are back from our quick trip to the UK, we flew in on Friday lunchtime and rushed straight to the suit shop for Simon to buy himself a new dinner suit - dont know quite what has happened in the 3 years since leaving uni but the suit he had there no longer fits and when he got his bow tie out of the cupboard it fell to bits - it must have had a lot of use in York University!!

Then we quickly had time to sit by the canal at one of the canalside pubs, so that Graham and Simon can enjoy an English beer, then off to meet Keith who had travelled up from Bristol - off to the apartment with just 3/4 hour to spare before we had to go to the VCC Awards Dinner at the Race Course.

  

Once we arrived we soon relaxed in the fantastic warm evening sun sipping our glasses of bubbly, we caught up with friends Karen and Alan and enjoyed a lovely evening - we didnt win the Self Catering Holiday Award but as we were delighted to have been shortlisted, we just see it as a run up to next years entry - hopefully better luck next time!

Saturday saw a shopping day around Chester for the four of us then off to Grandparents house in Heswall for a family get together - thanks Mum and Dad it was a lovely roast dinner. After a full cooked breakfast it was back to the airport and to our guests in Spain.

Monday morning brought us right back to normal with a check out, clean, check in and two sets of laundry to do!
