Post subject: | Re: Cotta8e |
I am ever hungry. Me for dinner. Me. Silly question but cam I get a confirmation on the exact address? Can't see it mentioned in the thread anywhere. I'll be rocking into Derby train station mid-day Saturday. Not sure what fun things I'll be bringing, other than whiskey, wine and my X100F. Might bring a couple of cult movies, such as RepoMan. Ooh! Will I need to bring a sleeping bag and mat? |

I've never known. I show up near the ASDAs, get blindfolded and thrown in a boot, then driven around for hours. Every single year. It's a 'joke' they have. |

Stenson Hill Farm Derby Road Twyford DE73 7FZ It's not very well signposted off the main road, there's just a turn off through a wooden gate that leads down a very straight road. At the end of the straight bit is a "fork" - you need to go left over a rickety metal bridge, and then I think left at another fork to go down to the cottages themselves. |

Bought a bottle of wine to accompany cottage related baking, as per tradition. I am now full of red wine and peanut butter buttercream and feel this is going to end badly. |

Tomorrow! I've been to Costco and instead of the normal pretzels, I've picked up some peanut butter filled ones. Sorry Mr Dave. |

I'll be getting in at 13:34 at Derby train station. Happily, despite the fiddly walk to the bus station, the number 38 drops me off right by the turn-off to the cottage. Handy. Other than some classic films and TV DVDs, a board game (probably Camel Up) my photography skills and rudimentary wit, I have little to offer, but I pray you all welcome me to my first Beex Cottage with welcome and mildly hungover arms. |

Benefiting the people eating it with a light and airy center that will leave them wanting more.... It's all in the way you sell it. |
