For the first time I've sat down and posted in this blog over the course of the last few months or so I genuinely feel decent. Not great, but decent. The lovely Sam and Rob have put me up in their spare room for the last week and have been nothing but the finest hosts and friends. I've been fed everyday and pampered for the last week - I don't think i'll be ready to leave any time soon!
The guys had a BBQ the friday just gone, and another reason why my feet are well and truly and the table are because of Robs' mad cooking skills. The chicken had been marinated in jerk sauce over night and come the party they were delicious once they'd come off the grill. Everything down to the relishes and dips were made from scratch, he certainly doesn't do things by half. The bonfire was going at the bottom of the garden and everyone was enjoying watching the flames flicker with marshmallows on sticks in hand. Definitely the chilled weekend I'd needed.
The one drawback has been I have recently discovered I am allergic to cats and the room I've been allocated technically belongs to the cats. So I've been roomsharing with two feline friends, and although it took us a while to come around to it we've become really good mates. I never used to be a cat person but Sherlock and Forrest (the two cats) have done a lot to bring me round.

Good news finding Little Sams - AND this is post 9 (not 8), so you're doing well stringing out decent B&Bs from your friends and new friends! nicola
