The sun’s feeling particularly warm this morning, the air the sweetest of the year and we’re skipping around the kitchen preparing breakfasts with beaming smiles – we’ve just been voted Number 1 in this morning’s Independent‘s Top 50 B&Bs! Better dash – the sausages need turning….

My body seems to be telling me to slow down. Or at least to ignore Mike’s ‘encouragement’ at the regular Running Inn training sessions on a Wednesday night when we enjoy (or is that endure?) an array of different workouts along the Eastbourne sea front.

The artistic talents of the wife have out-manouevred blokey bah humbugism and the The Guesthouse East is ready for Christmas. Tasteful tinsel, pretty lights and a rather lovely wreath on the door. Ahh, kick back with a glass of mulled. Does it get any better? Well, it might actually tonight, thanks to Christmas Magic 2009 [...]
