National Portrait Gallery

Legend at the Royal Albert Hall

Villandry

This is a chateau set in the most amazing formal gardens, including the most beautiful vegetable gardens and a maze. We wandered around the gardens very happily here.

Distillerie Combier

I’ve always thought of triple sec as just the orange stuff you put in cocktails, but this distillery produces a really delicious one along with an array of syrups and liqueurs in more flavours than I knew existed.

Le Comptoir Des Vins

After a fascinating visit to Fontevraud Abbey we wanted a little lunch. This place provided, with real vinyl as the background music (and a fascinating selection of that).

Natural History Museum

I miss the dinosaur from my childhood of course, but the whale skeleton was impressive.

Cotswold Distillery

A delightful distillery with some lovely gin and whisky.

Rijksmuseum

They had several badges each one based on something on display at the museum. This one is based on The Night Watch.

Amsterdam

A lovely coat of arms for a lovely city.

Hard Rock Cafe Lisbon

My first visit to a Hard Rock Cafe.

Castelo de São Jorge

This is a lovely castle and has fantastic views of the rest of Lisbon.

Penderyn

This distillery makes one of my favourite gins and one of my favourite whiskies. I hope to visit it for myself one day.
