The hotel was also handy for a good range of restaurants. On the following evenings we would eat Chinese and Thai food. This first night we chose The White Goose – I can’t remember now what we ate but I know it was delicious, and I liked their goose mural shown above. We returned to our room eager to get a good night’s sleep to prepare us for our visit to the V&A the following morning.
Linked to Cathy’s On journeystrand, though my journey is nothing like as exciting as her tales of the Camino.
Oh dear, I’m sorry about that! I know how frustrating that is. I haven’t changed anything recently and have just had a look at the settings and can’t work out what to do. Is it just my blog or does it happen elsewhere? If it’s not just me and you are commenting from an Apple device, it might be the privacy setting in Safari not carrying your details from site to site.
A friend sings a parody of “The Road to Dundee” and I did my best to find the lyrics but–ah, well, not everyone like parodies anyway. It’s a beautiful tune, whichever set of words it has.
One day I would like to get to Dundee and visit the Unicorn. My mum was stationed there during WW2 with the WRNS when it was used as a base ship for the Naval Officer in Charge. She was there at the end of the war when two German officers from a U boat came on board and surrendered.
That unicorn figurehead is spectacular. It would be fun to tour the ship.

p.s. your blog no longer remembers me — I am having to type out my contact info each time I comment.

That is a nice goose! I’d rather the pub was still a library though. There are too many pubs already, and not nearly enough libraries!

Too true! Though as others have pointed out, the combination of beer and books is appealing.
