Teaching singing with Chris and Ali for the Holiday Property Bond takes us to lovely castles in Scotland and Angelsey, a place outside Paris and now to the South of Spain near Almeria. The complex is built like a white toppled hill-top village amongst the barren folded soft green hills. Unfortunately, the food in most of the restaurants we patronised (with one exception), whilst edible, sometimes tasty and always filling was unremarkable and mostly hotel catering food from the freezer pack. A bit "Brits in Spain". So I'm not going to comment any more than that. It was a very enjoyable week with lovely singing people, our own huge villa to rehearse in (including our own pool) and some gorgeous warm sunshine toasting our sun-starved bodies as we relaxed at the end of the week!
My weight, however, unlike the last Theme week in Scotland where I did not put any weight on, has risen by a whole pound! That'll be the potato wedges and the packet of pastries that I ate during the last two days!
Tonight Scott and I went to Green's Dining Rooms on Zetland Rd, where it was enjoyably, and unusually quiet. The food was delicious, tasty and not too large portions. The service was light-hearted, quick and good. Lovely juicy little crisp parcels of crab wontons with a cucumber relish and avocado,calves liver and chocolate torte with a crispy thing and a coffee sauce. Scott had a langoustine bisque that was OK, and a very strong flavoured sticky toffee pudding. I have heard that the brothers who run Green's are selling up. That will be a loss to Bristol!
Mmmm.... Now I've got to make sure I lose a pound by next Wednesday to return to my stone loss since I started going to Slimming World!
