Week in Oslo and Molde visiting family.

We spent a weekend in Oslo before heading up to Molde to spend the week there doing so few odd jobs and help clearing snow. Rather chilly as you can see.

Weekend in Madeira with Ingvild, Jose and Jan

We're just back from a long weekend with Ingvild, Jose and Jan. We spent a lot of the time travelling round the island to visit some of the breathtaking viewpoints (at some point we were ABOVE the clouds) like Cabo Girao and Pico do Ariero. We had an entertaining dinner in Hemingway on the Friday night with food, singing and dancing. On The Saturday we had a pizza at Pico da Atalaia, and finally I got to have an Espetada in Restaurante Mercado Velho. 
A few photos are below, the rest are here:

Snow in Newbury Park

We had some pretty heavy snow tonight, came as a bit of a surprise after the foggy/frosty day!









It was a foggy and frosty start to the day today. So we walked into Ilford to do a bit of shopping and stopped off in Valentine's Park at the Cottage Garden Cafe for a lunch which we bravely had outside.
