Rochester, Kent
Over Easter, Kay and Darcy came to stay with me a couple of nights. On Good Friday we went out to my favourite Italian restaurant where I always order the same thing - Razza or, as we English say, skate wing. You never see that fish in supermarkets and can only get it in fishmongers. Few restaurants ever have it on their menu either, so it is real treat for me to have it in that restaurant. On Easter Saturday, we took the train to Rochester in Kent. Although not far from where I live in South London (about 25 miles) I have never actually been there, so decided it was now or never. I was quite surprised by how quaint the High Street is. I suppose I was expecting a modern drab sort of city centre like any other, but the High Street was full of old buildings dating back to the Victorian, Georgian and even Elizabethan times. It was home to Charles Dickens for many years and featured in his novels. There wasn't a chain store in sight, but many coffee houses, charity shops a

Happy Easter
This week, I am starting gruelling dental treatment to fill a gap where a tooth was removed during the Covid pandemic. I find it hard to chew on that side and sought out a local specialist dentist who does implants. He has glowing reviews on his website. He took a CT scan of my mouth and did measurements and declared that he didn't feel confident doing an implant, as there is not enough bone density to insert an implant that would otherwise come into contact with a nerve within millimetres of it. Even if he injected artificial bone to augment the bone density, he still feels the implant would fail and cause me 18-months of painful treatment that would fail. He is THE MAN to do implants and even lectures on the subject at University College London, so, if he says it is not possible, then I believe him. He could have just taken my money and done a bad job, but was at least honest. He suggested a bridge would solve the problem more than adequately, so I am starting that treatment on

Easter foods & wine
Easter foods & wine The long Easter weekend is a great time for getting together with family and friends. It’s an excuse to celebrate after the long winter months and perhaps splash out on some great wine and food. There is no one specific Easter dish in the UK so in this blogpost I look at a number of main dishes served up and down the country and make suggestions for wines that will complement if not enhance your Easter dinner, lunch or brunch. Note that it can be difficult to find wines to complement all the different flavours in some dishes. First rule of thumb is to match the richness and weight of the main dish with the body of the wine; so that means richer dishes with heavier, fuller-bodied wines and light foods with lighter wines. WINE FOR EASTER FISH DISHES My local fishmongers tell me that the tradition of eating fish on Good Friday is less adhered to these days but this doesn’t stop them having one of their busiest days of the year on Good Friday. If you are going to have a
