Little House On The Park

How about a house with one of Cheltenhams largest open spaces as a front garden? Not enough for you? How about a garden pond that just happens to be a boating lake? Still not enough? OK, how about an 18 hole golf course in your front garden? No? What's wrong with you?!

This little Victorian red brick house has all three. It faces on to Pitville Park, the boating lake and, just beyond that, the golf course! This house stands out from the crowd too. All the other surrounding houses are made up of row upon row of terraced housing, that all face away from the park. Talk about bad planning.

I'm glad to see the owners have got chairs under the front porch to take full advantage of their extra special front garden.

Marley In Kefalonia - Day One

Hello everyone, I'm back! I had a brilliant time on the Greek island of Kefalonia. The sun shone, the water was warm and the food and drink tasted delicious! What more could I have asked for?

I don't go back to work until Monday so to make the holiday last a bit longer I'll show you some of the many photos I took until then. I'll return to Cheltenham photos on Monday. Hope you enjoy a taste of Greece.

The beautiful Myrtos beach, on the road to the fishing village of Fiskardo.

Some of the many colourful boats and buildings at Fiskardo.

Flowers enjoying the sun and a not so traditional coloured building.

Come back tomorrow for more sun, sea and sand. At some point today I'll get round to catching up with your blogs, I'm looking forward to seeing what you've all been up to!
